Question

30 is what percent of 80?

Answer 1

Let's see what we're working with! 

Always remember the word "of" means multiply in mathematical terms

Our work! 
30(80) = ? 

30 ÷ 100 = $\frac{30}{100}$ but the result of this would have to be 0.3 

So, the problem becomes: 0.3 (80)

                  The answer of that ↑ would be 24

Finally, we get to your answer! 

If you do it my way your answer would be 24 but if you do the other way your answer would be 37.5  if that makes sense 

Good Luck! 

:)

Answer 2

30÷80=0.375
0.375=37.5%
So the answer is 37.5%
