Given the number:
50
Determine its 40%
Solution:
In order to determine 40% of 50, we simply need to multiply 50 by the decimal value of 40%. In converting a percentage into decimal, divide the percentage by 100, hence in converting a decimal to percentage, multiply the percentage by 100.
= 40/100
= 0.4
= (0.4)(50)
= 20
Final answer:
40% of 50 is 20.
