you would turn 52 into a percent =.52 and then do 182÷52
with would equal 350

Answer: 350

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the solution in the original tube be y.

52% of a solution is transferred into an empty vial and there are now 182 in the vial. This means

52% of y = 182

52/100 × y = 182

0.52 × y = 182

0.52y = 182

Divide both side by the coefficient of y

0.52y/0.52 = 182/0.52

y = 350

In the original tube, there were 350.
