Note that: "%" ; or "percent" means "out of 100" ; or "divided by 100" .

Method 1)
15/50 = ?/ 100 ;
Look at the denominators:
50 * (what value?) = 100 ? ; → "100 ÷ 50 = 2" ;
→ 50 * 2 = 100 ;
So: "15/50 = (15*2)/(50*2) = "30/100" ; which is "30%" .

Method 2:
___________________________________________
"15/50" = (15÷5) / (50÷5) = 3/10 ;
3/10 = (3*10) / (10*10) = 30/100 ; which is: "30%" .
__________________________________________
Method 3: (slight variation of "Method 2" above):
___________________________________________
"15/50" = (15÷5) / (50÷5) = 3/10 ;
3/10 = 0.3 = 0.30 = (0.30 * 100) % = " 30% " .

Answer:
Weight of parcel to the nearest whole kilogram = 6 kg
Explanation:
Weight of parcel = 12 lbs 8 oz
1lb = 16 oz also we have 1lb = 454 g
Weight of parcel = 12 lbs 8 oz = 12 + (8/16) lbs = 12.5 lbs
Weight of parcel in g = 12.5*454 = 5675 g
Weight of parcel = 5675 g = 5.675 kg
Weight of parcel to the nearest whole kilogram = 6 kg
The expression 
means "all the numbers stricktly greater than -4"
Since the number line is oriented with positive direction going to the right, a number is greater than another if its sits to its right.
So, we want all the numbers to the right of -4, excluded -4 itself.
So, the answer is D.
