Answer:

40.1%

Step-by-step explanation:

I am assuming that 192 is in 100%.

100% = 192

I then represent the value that we are looking for with [tex]x[/tex].

x% = 77

By dividing both equations (100% = 192 and x% = 77) and remembering that both left hand sides of BOTH equations have the percentage unit (%).

[tex]\frac{100}{x} = \frac{77}{192}[/tex]

Now, of course, we take the reciprocal, or inverse, of both sides:

[tex]\frac{x}{100} = \frac{7}{192}[/tex]

x = 40.1%

Thus making the answer: 40.1% of 192 is 77.
