Answer:
288 pages
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Set up a fraction (Since 75% is 216, 100% is x. We don't need the percent (%).)
[tex]\frac{216}{75} = \frac{x}{100}\\\\[/tex]
Step 2: Solve; Divide the given values (All we are doing is finding what is between those values.)
[tex]\frac{216}{75}\\\\216 \div 75\\\\= 2.88[/tex]
Step 3: Multiply the result to the value (Now we multiply the result to 100 because that would make it equal.)
[tex]100\\\\2.88 \times 100\\\\= 288[/tex]
Therefore, the book is 288 pages long.
