(332% of 2113) / 42 = _________?
Correct answer: A. 167
- A. 167
- B. 154
- C. 162
- D. 181
Explanation
Convert 332% to 3.32: 3.32 x 2113 = 7015.16. Dividing by 42 gives 7015.16 / 42 = 167.03, approximately 167, option a. The likely mistake is choosing c, 162, from treating 332% as roughly 3 times the number rather than 3.32 times it.
