To calculate percent, you simply have to divide by 100 and then multiply by the amount of percent you want.

So, if I want to know what 60% of 24 is:

24 divided by 100 = 0.24

0.24 multiplied by 60 (the amount of percent I want to know) = 14.4

60% of 24 = 14.4

Alternatively, to find percent you simply multiplied by the percent you want as a decimal.

By this is mean, you multiply it by 0.(percent).

For example, 45% of 60.

60 multiplied by 0.(percent)

60 multiplied by 0.45

= 27.

45% of 60 = 27.

In your case:

112 divided by 100 = 1.12

1.12 multiplied by 30 = 33.6

30% of 112 lbs = 33.6 lbs

or

112 multiplied by 0.30 = 33.6

30% of 112 lbs = 33.6 lbs
