Answer:

1.26

Explanation:

to find a specific percentage of a number, you multiply the number [60]

by the second number/percent--but you move the decimal of this number two places to the left

(for example, 20 becomes .20 , 3% becomes 0.03)

20.00

0. 20

03.00

0.03

So, if we move the decimal of 2.1 to the left two places,

02.1

0.021

So, if we multiply

60 × 0.021 , = 1.26

So, 2.1 percent of 60 is 1.26
