At least 2 ways to do this problem.
First- of means to multiply, percent converts to a decimal by moving th understood decimal to the left 2 places. So .... .05 x 30 = 1.5
Second --- Use a proportion. The saying: Is over of equals percent over 100.
Think of rewording the problem: What is 5 percent of 30?
x / 30 = 5 / 100 ..... now cross multiply and solve for x
100 x = 5(30)
x = 5(30)/100 = 1.5
5% of 30 = 1.5 = 5% * 30 = 5%/100% * 30 = 0.05 * 30 = 1.5

find what percent of 30 is 20 how do you get this answer to this problem
5 percent of 30 gallons = 1.5 gallo ns = 5% of 30 gallo ns = 0.05 * 30 = 1.5 gallo ns
5 ÷ 100 × 30 = 1.5
To find 30 percent of a number, multiply the number by 0.3. In this instance, 0.3 x 5 = 1.5. Therefore, 30 percent of 5 is equal to 1.5.
To find 30 percent of a number, multiply the number by 0.3. In this instance, 0.3 x 600 = 180. Therefore, 30 percent of 600 is equal to 180.
5% of 30 = 1.5 = 5% * 30 = 5%/100% * 30 = 0.05 * 30 = 1.5

5 ÷ 100 × 30 = 1.5
5/30 = 1/6 = 16.666666...%
5/30 is 1/6 so 16.66%
Multiply .3 and 30 and you will have your answer.
