Question

Which is bigger, 60% of 90 or 1/2 of 100?

Answer 1

60% of 90 = 60/100 x 90 = 0.6 x 90 = 54
1/2 of 100 = 1/2 x 100 = 0.5 x 100 = 50
so 60% of 90 is bigger than 1/2 of 100
Hope this Helps :D

Answer 2

`60\% \ of \ 90= (60)/(100)*90= (6)/(10)*90= \\\\ =6*9\to\boxed{54} \\\\\\\\ (1)/(2) \ of \ 100= (1)/(2)*100\to\boxed{50} \\\\ \boxed{54>50} \\\\ 60 \% \ of \ 90 > (1)/(2) \ of \ 100`
