It depends on what you are trying to calculate but the most common way I go to find percentage is to multiply by the number in decimal for ie. 50% = .5.

If you are looking for a way to do it quickly in your head I always take find out what 10% is like in the case of 100 it would be 10 so if I want to find 15% I know I can find 10% and if I cut what 10% is in half I will find 5% so likewise if I add what 10%+5% I will end up with 15%. For example, 10% of 100 is 10 half of 10 is 5 and 10+5 equals 15. If you need to find something like 20% or 30% I know that I can find 10% and instead of dividing(cutting it in half) I can multiply by 2 or 3. 10% + 10% =20%

I hope it helps, if you have more questions let me know!

In a bag of marbles, 6 are blue. The probability of picking out a blue marble from the bag is 3/5. How many marbles are in the b
postnew [5]

Answer: 3/5 = (6/10). There are 10 TOTAL marbles in the bag.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since it is a question of fractions, you can assume any reasonable number and work with the numbers. We know initially that there are 6 marbles and they are ALL blue and the rest are another color or colors. So BLUE = 6/10 and the other colors 4/10 for 2/5.
