Answer:

22.8

Explanation:

To find the percentage of a number, first change the percentage to a decimal and then multiply.

76% as a decimal is 0.76 (Divide the percentage by 100 to get decimal value)

30 x 0.76 = 22.8

(To multiply numbers when using decimals, first disregard the decimal altogether and multiply as normal - 30x76=2280 - then put in the decimal place at the end. In this case there were two digits after the decimal, so we place the decimal two digits from the right, turning 2280 to 22.80)
