Answer:

57 is the answer.

Explanation:

To get the result, this is one possible procedure:

60 is the total limit, meaning that it also represents 100 percent.

On the other hand, we want to know 95 percent of the limit.

We should perform the following multiplication: 60*.95=57, which is also the correct answer for this question.
