its 5.829
Since percentages are often thought of as parts of a larger whole thing, there can a tendency to divide instead of multiply when faced with a problem such as "find 35% of 80." As the example below shows, after converting the percent to a decimal, the next step is to multiply, not divide.
so all your doing is multiplying
