EXPLANATION
Since 150% represents a percentage bigger than 156, the appropiate relationship would be as follows:
[tex]Part\text{=}\frac{\text{Percentage}}{100}\cdot\text{Whole}[/tex]Where the whole number is 156 and the percentage is 150%:
[tex]\text{Part}=\frac{150}{100}\cdot156[/tex][tex]\text{Part}=1.5\cdot156=234[/tex]In conclusion, the solution is 234
