The correct Answer is:
To solve the equation \( x\% \) of 250 + 25% of 68 = 67, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Convert percentages to fractions We can express \( x\% \) as \( \frac{x}{100} \) and 25% as \( \frac{25}{100} \). ### Step 2: Write the equation The equation can be written as: \[ \frac{x}{100} \times 250 + \frac{25}{100} \times 68 = 67 \] ### Step 3: Simplify the equation Calculating \( \frac{25}{100} \times 68 \): \[ \frac{25 \times 68}{100} = \frac{1700}{100} = 17 \] So the equation now becomes: \[ \frac{x}{100} \times 250 + 17 = 67 \] ### Step 4: Isolate the term with \( x \) Subtract 17 from both sides: \[ \frac{x}{100} \times 250 = 67 - 17 \] \[ \frac{x}{100} \times 250 = 50 \] ### Step 5: Multiply both sides by 100 to eliminate the fraction \[ 250x = 50 \times 100 \] \[ 250x = 5000 \] ### Step 6: Solve for \( x \) Divide both sides by 250: \[ x = \frac{5000}{250} \] \[ x = 20 \] ### Final Answer Thus, the value of \( x \) is \( 20 \). ---
