18/60
divide 18 by 60 and get .3 then multiply by 100 to get the percentage = 30%

Answer:

30%

Explanation:

A perfect equation is x/100 = 18/60

18 is the part and 60 is the whole

x is the percent you are trying to find and 100 is the basic percent

18 times 100 equal 1800

1800 divided by 60 equals 30
