Answer 1

Answer:

12.08

Step-by-step explanation:

the easiest way to answer this is to set it up in this equation:

15.1/100 = x/80

in this, 15.1 is the percentage over 100 (because 100% is the most you can get) and x is the number that would be 15.1 percent of 80. Cross multiply so that you get 100x = 1208. Divide both sides by 100 to get x by itself. the end result will be x = 12.08
