1. How to calculate percentage of a number. Use the percentage formula: P% * X = Y

1. Convert the problem to an equation using the percentage formula: P% * X = Y.
2. P is 10%, X is 150, so the equation is 10% * 150 = Y.
3. Convert 10% to a decimal by removing the percent sign and dividing by 100: 10/100 = 0.10.

• Multiply by 100 and add a percentage sign
• 0.876 = 0.876 * 100 = 87.6%
