Answer:
[tex]x = 13\% \times 900[/tex] Or [tex]x = \frac{13}{100}\times 900[/tex].
Step-by-step explanation:
Total bulbs = 900
Percentage of broken bulbs = 13%
Let x be the number of broken bulbs
Thirteen percent of the light bulbs arrive broken
So, [tex]x = 13\% \times 900[/tex]
Or
[tex]x = \frac{13}{100}\times 900[/tex]
Or
[tex]x =117[/tex]
Hence The equation can be used to find the number of light bulbs that were broken is [tex]x = 13\% \times 900[/tex] Or [tex]x = \frac{13}{100}\times 900[/tex].
