Complete the statement:
24 is __% of 80
Solution:
In order to determine what percentage of 80 is 24, we simply divide 24 by 80.
= 24/80
= 0.3
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.
= (0.3) (100)
= 30%
Final answer:
24 is 30% of 80
