Question

What is 25% of 24? What is 15% of 60? 9 is what percent of 72

Answer 1

Answer:

6

9

6.48

Step-by-step explanation:

this is the easiest way to solve for percentage:

$\frac{part}{whole} =\frac{part}{whole}$  Where all the percents (except 100) would go in part

and the whole number would go in whole

$\frac{25}{100} =\frac{?}{24}$  Then multiply 24 × 25 ÷ 100 = 6

$\frac{15}{100} =\frac{?}{60}$  Multiply 60 by 25 then divided by 100 = 9

Then for the last one 9 is what percent of 72

all we have to do is multiply 9 and then convert 72 into a decimal (0.72)

Then 9 × 0.72 = 6.48
