(a) 225 The calculations aren't too bad on this one. The most important thing to keep in mind is that you're solving for 75% of (x) and not for (x) itself. First, you are told that 50% of (x) is 150. That means that half of (x) is 150, and that (x) is 300. So 75% of (x) = 0.75 x 300 = 225.

Answer:
(d) 96 Be careful with a question like this one. You're given the percent decrease (25%) and the new number (72), and you're asked to reconstruct the original number. Don't just take 25% of 72 and add it on. That 25% is based not on the new number, 72, but on the original number - the number you're looking for.
The best way to do a problem like this is to set up an equation:
(original number) - (25% of original number) = new number
