| fraction | decimal | percent |
| a. | 1.8 | b. |
Step1: Set up ratio proportion
Let $k$ = number of koalas.
$\frac{9}{5} = \frac{414}{k}$
Step2: Cross-multiply to solve for $k$
$9k = 414 \times 5$
$9k = 2070$
Step3: Isolate $k$
$k = \frac{2070}{9}$
$k = 230$
---
Step1: Convert decimal to fraction
$1.8 = \frac{18}{10} = \frac{9}{5}$
Step2: Convert decimal to percent
$1.8 \times 100 = 180\%$
