The Answer is 2520
No it is not---
to find the answer first convert the % to a decimal
so 36% would look like 36. and THEN move the decimal over 2 spaces to the left (this is just a rule to remember)
36% is the same as .36
Then simply multiply by the number given
so 36% of 72 would look like
.36 * 72
and the answer is 25.92
A tip to remember is that 100% of a number is THE SAME NUMBER
so 100% of 72 is 72
So if you are looking for 36% (which is less than 100%) your answer will obviously be less than the original number (in this case less than 72)--so obviously the poster who says the answer is 2520 is incorrect
same for the opposite direction--if you are looking for 200% (greater than 100%) of a number your answer will be GREATER than the original number--so usually on multiple choice math tests you can eliminate 2 of the options right off the bat by simply applying that tip to them.
