Question

What is 24% of 165 wholes

Answer 1

Convert 24% to decimal, just move the decimal from behind 24 to in front of 24 to get 0.24

Multiply 165 x 0.24

=39.6

This is a faster way of solving the problem but both methods work!

Answer 2

39.6

Explanation:

first, divide 39.6 by 100 to get 1% of it, which is 3.96. Then, multiply that by 24 (to represent 24%) and you will get 39.6.
