42. ?

____ = ____

100. 800

cross multiply

800×42=33,600

then divide by 100

33,600/100=336

Answer:

336

Step-by-step explanation:

If 42% said they shopped online last week, that means the number of people who said they shopped online last week is 42% of 800. "Of" just means we should multiply, and since 42% = 42/100 (since % is just /100), we can use the following to find the answer (I used cross multiplication to simplify):

42          800         42         8

---    *               =     ----    *       =     336

100                           1
