Step by Step Solution

In order to solve problem, you must evaluate (n₁ * 100) / (100 - n₀).

• (n₁ * 100) / (100 - n₀)

• Evaluate n₁ * 100 = 58000

  58000 / (100 - n₀)

• Evaluate 100 - n₀ = 65

  58000 / 65

• Evaluate 58000 / 65 = 892.30769230769

  892.30769230769
• The answer to the problem and the result of (n₁ * 100) / (100 - n₀) is 892.30769230769
