Question

(out loud) Find the percentages. 15m is what percent of 60m; 3m; 30m; 1.5 km?

Answer 1

Answer: 15meter is 25% of 60m

15m is 500% of 3m

15m is 50% of 30m

15m is 1% of 1.5km.

Explanation:

Given: 15m is what percentage of 60m; 3m; 30m; 1.5km

To find: Find the percentage.

Formula used: 1 kilometer=1000meter.

Explanation:

Let X percentage of 60m =15meter

So, X% of 60m =15m

`(60X)/(100)` = 15m

Multiply both side by 100.

60X = 1500m

On dividing both side by 60

X = 25%

Let X percentage of 3m =15meter

So, X% of 3m =15m

`(3X)/(100)` = 15m

Multiply both side by 100.

3X = 1500m

On dividing both side by 3

X = 500%

Let X percentage of 30m =15meter

So, X% of 30m =15m

`(30X)/(100)` = 15m

Multiply both side by 100.

30X = 1500m

On dividing both side by 30

X = 50%

Let X percentage of 1.5km =15meter

Convert kilometer into meter by above formula (1.5km=1500meter)

So, X% of 1500m =15m

`(1500X)/(100)` = 15m

Multiply both side by 100.

1500X = 1500m

On dividing both side by 1500

X = 1%

Therefore , 15meter is 25% of 60m

15m is 500% of 3m

15m is 50% of 30m

15m is 1% of 1.5km.
