Answer:

30% of 200 equals 60.

Explanation:

There is a formula we use to this specific type of problem. It's called the rule of 3.

30% - 60

100% - x

(60 * 100) / 30 =

6000 / 30 =

200

Step-by-step proof:

To prove our answer, what me must do is use another formula:

(200 * 30) / 100 = 60

6000 / 100 = 60

60 = 60

↑ Both numbers are equal (equation is true), therefore, our solution is correct.

Hope it helped,
