Answer:

1.5

Explanation:

To solve, you put (5%) in the calculator, then (30) next to it, and the calculator gives you your answer. I think that's the easiest way to do it.

Answer: 1.5

Step-by-step explanation: To find 5% of 30, first write 5% as a decimal by moving the decimal point 2 places to the right to get .05.

Next, the word "of" means multiply, so we have (.05)(30) which is 1.5.

So 5% of 30 is 1.5.
