How much money is 10 percent?

Answer 1

Ten percent is a fraction rather than an amount of money. A whole unit is 100 percent so 10 percent is 10/100 or one-tenth of the total, no matter what the item is:

10% of $45.00 is $4.50
10% of 3 kilos of meat is 300 grams of meat
10% of 90 acres of land is 9 acres

and so on
