What is 15 percent of 480?

Answer 1

15 percent is the same as 15/100 or .15

Multiply .15 x 480 to get the answer.

.15 x 80 = 72

Answer

0.15 x 80= 12

and

15 x 80= 1200

And that's not how you get the answer.

You're giving false information.

is/of = %/100

72/480 = x/100

480x = 7200

x = 7200/480

x = 15
