2024 UPDATED!!! The amount $180.00 is what percent greater than $135.00?

SOMEONE ASKED 👇

The amount $180.00 is what percent greater than $135.00?

Hi 🙂

We’ll let the percentage=p

Therefore

$180 = $135 x p

180/135 = p

p = 1.3333…

So $180 is 133.33% of $135

However! The question is asking what percent greater than $135 is it, so the answer is B. 33.33% (because the 100% is the first $135 of the $180 and the 33.33% is the other $45)
It is 33.33% greater. 180 divided by 135 equals 133.33 minus 100% equals 33.33%.
Pink Floyd. Rick Wright put out 2 solo albums and is working on a third. Syd Barrett put out 5. Gilmour did 3 and is working on another. Waters has 6 and even Nick Mason has 2 and wrote a book. While they all didn’t leave, they did go on to have separate solo careers. edit: hey sarah
let us try one by one

a: 35% = 0.35

0.35*180 = 63

180-63 = 117 not greter than $135.00

than a is wrong

b: 33.33% = 0.3333

0.3333*180=59.994

180 – 59.994 = 120.006 not grater than $135.00

than b is wrong

c: 75% = 0.75

0.75*180=135 is equal to $135.00

than c wrong

d: 133.33% =1.3333

1.3333*180 = 239.994 is grater than $135.00

than d is right
180 is 45 more than 135.

45/135 = 0.3333

= 33.33%
