Answer:

65.57

Step-by-step explanation:

Method 1:

[tex]\frac{y}{79} :\frac{17}{100}[/tex]

y · 100 = 17 · 79

100y = 1343

100y ÷ 100 = 1343 ÷ 100

y = 13.43

79 - 13.43

65.57

Method 2:

100% - 17% = 83%

[tex]\frac{y}{79} :\frac{83}{100}[/tex]

y · 100 = 83 · 79

100y = 6557

100y ÷ 100 = 6557 ÷ 100

y = 65.57
