The easiest way to do this is to use the following:
is over of = percent over 100
Just substitute x for what the unknown is, then cross multiply. In this case:
Re-wording the original question: (60 is ) (20 percent) (of what)?
60/x = 20/100
Cross multiply - 20x = 6000
x = 300
To find 15 percent more of 60, you first calculate 15 percent of 60 by multiplying 60 by 0.15, which equals 9. Then, to find 15 percent more of 60, you add 9 to the original 60, resulting in 69. Therefore, 15 percent more of 60 is 69.
The term 'percent off' means to calculate the percentage, then subtract from the original amount. 20% = 0.20, so 0.20 x 300 = 60. Subtract 60 from 300 = 240
24 is 60% of 40
60 is 30% of 200
20 percent off of 60.00 = 48.0020% off of 60= 20% discount applied to 60= 60 - (20% * 60)= 60 - (0.20 * 60)= 60 - 12= 48
12

60 percent as a percent is 60%
No, 300 percent of 60 equals 180
.2x = 12 x = 12/.2 x = 60
80 percent of 60 percent = 48%
20 percent of 60 percent of 600 is 72.
The term 'percent off' means to calculate the percentage, then subtract from the original amount. 20% = 0.20, so 0.20 x 300 = 60. Subtract 60 from 300 = 240
60% = 6/10, which simplifies to 3/5.
100*0.6 = 60%
20 percent off 60 students = 48 students20% off of 60= 20% discount applied to 60= 60 - (20% * 60)= 60 - (0.20 * 60)= 60 - 12= 48
20% of 12 = 20% * 12 = 0.2 * 12 = 2.4
