100 divided by 20 equals 5
multiply 5 by 24
the base is 120
umm percent (20) over 100 = Is (24) over Of (x)
20 24 24x100= 2400 then 200 times x= 20x
--- = ---- after divide 2400 by 20
100 x 2400/20 = 120
X=120

x=24
First, you convert 20 percent into a decimal, by moving it to the left twice. 20% = .20 Then, you multiply 24 by .20 24 x .20 = 4.8 20 percent off 24 is 4.8. Hope I helped!
2 x 2.4
If the number =x then .2x=answer. --> in words: (20%)*(number)=20% of the number. But percent is (x/y)*100 so you have to divide by 100 to get the number you multiply by; that's why the 20% is 0.2 in the equation.
120 x .20= 24 $24 dollars off $120= $96
