To take a percentage of a price, multiply the price by the decimal equivalent of the percentage, which is the percentage divided by 100.

25 percent of $15.00 = 15 x 0.25 = $3.75

To take a percentage off a price, you can either subtract that number from the original price ($15.00 - $3.75 = $11.25) or multiply the original price by the decimal equivalent of 100 percent minus the discount. (15 x 0.75 = $11.25)

What percentage is 29 out of 41?

41 ÷ 2 = 20.5. So 20.5 is your 50% mark. 29 is obviously larger than 20.5 so you can approximate that your percentage is greater than 50. An estimate would tell you that your percentage would be closer to the 70% mark. Let's figure it out mathematically. 29 ÷ 41 = 0.70731... which is ~ 71.0%.

How do you convert marks taken for 100 to 80?

To convert marks taken for 100 to 80, you would first calculate the percentage decrease in marks. This can be done by subtracting 80 from 100 to get 20, then dividing 20 by 100 to get 0.20 or 20%. Next, you would multiply each mark by 0.80 (1 minus the percentage decrease) to obtain the equivalent mark out of 80. For example, a mark of 90 out of 100 would be converted to 72 out of 80 (90 x 0.80 = 72).
