7.5

Method 1: 10% of 50 is 5 5% of 50 is 2.5

2.5 + 5.0 = 7.5

Method 2: 50 x 0.15 = 7.5 Method 3: 50 x (15/100)

= (50 x 15) / 100 = 750 / 100 = 7.5 Other

As a shortcut, to find any percentage of 50, simply divide the required percentage in half. Eg: 40% of 50 = 20; 30% of 50 = 15; 90% of 50 = 45; 21% of 50 = 10.5 etc.
