Question

Find the percent of the number.
30% of 30 is
Explain your method.

Answer 1

30%of 30 is 9

Explanation:

first you change 30% into a decimal (.30) by moving the decimal over to the left two times.

next you multiply 30* .30 ( i recommend you multiply it like this 30.00)

.30

next your first answer should be 900.00 . when you get this answer move the decimal over to the left two time again and your answer look like 9.0000

which is 9 as your final answer :).

Answer 2

The answer would be 9

Explanation:

Step 1: Our output value is 30.

Step 2: We represent the unknown value with $x$.

Step 3: From step 1 above,$30=100\%$.

Step 4: Similarly, $x=30\%$.

Step 5: This results in a pair of simple equations:

Step 6: By dividing equation 1 by equation 2 and noting that both the RHS (right hand side) of both

equations have the same unit (%); we have

Step 7: Again, the reciprocal of both sides gives

Therefore, 30% of 30 is 9
