First find $3.6 %$ of $\(\frac{5 x}{12}\)$ :
$$
3.6 % \\(times \frac{5 x}{12}=0.036 \cdot \frac{5 x}{12}=\frac{0.18 x}{12}=0.015 x\) .
$$
So each correct choice must equal $\(0.015 x\)$.
- A. $3 %$ of $\(20 x=0.03 \cdot 20 x=0.6 x\)$ (not equal).
-B. $x %$ of $\(\frac{3}{2}=\frac{x}{100} \cdot \frac{3}{2}=\frac{3 x}{200}=0.015 x\)$ (equal).
- C. $3 x %$ of $0.2=\frac{3 x}{100} \cdot 0.2=0.006 x$ (not equal).
- D. $0.05 %$ of $3\( x=0.0005 \cdot 3 x=0.0015 x\)$ (not equal).
- E. $\(\frac{3 x}{200}=0.015 x\)$ (equal).
Correct expressions: B and E.
