Determine what percentage of 40 is 30.
Solution:
In order to determine what percentage of 40 is 30, we simply need to divide 30 by 40.

Since we are given a decimal answer, in order to convert it into percentage, we multiply the decimal by 100. Hence, in converting a percentage into decimal, we divide the percentage by 100.
= (0.75)(100)
= 75%
