Question

Finding what percent one number is of another ?

11.) what per cent of 45 is 30 ?

12.) what per cent of 64 is 16 ?

Answer 1

11) 67%; 12) 25%

Explanation:

Problem 11: Find the fraction representing 30 out of a total of 45, and then multiply the result by 100%:

30/45 = 2/3 = 0.67; then we see that 30 is 67% of 45.

Problem 12: Same method:

16/64 = 1/4 = 0.25. Mult. this by 100%: 16 is 25% of 64.
