The solution to that equation is 30.

To solve the question, you can translate that question into a formula.

What is 15% of 200 can also be said as X = .15 * 200.

To convert 15% to a decimal, remember that another way of saying 15% is the fraction 15/100. So move the decimal point forward 2 spots. So 15.0 becomes .150.

So to find the answer, you simply take .15 and multiply it by 200. So 15% of 200 is 30. If you're looking at a product that costs $200 and is 15% off, the cost of the product would be $200-30 or $170
