The simplest, one-step, way is to multiply by 1.3.
But if your arithmetical skills are not up to that the longer way is:
Step 1: divide the number by 10 (move the decial point one place to the left)
Step 2: multiply the result by 3
Step 3: add this to the original number.
Or
Step 1: divide the number by 10 (move the decial point one place to the left)
Step 2a: add this to the original number (+ 10%)
Step 2b: add again (+ 20%)
Step 2c: add yet again (and you've got + 30%).
Another way to write it is 3/10
50% of $30 is $15. The easiest way to do this is to just divide 30 by two, since 50% is half off.
Oh, dude, you're hitting me with math? Okay, so 160 percent of 30 is like 48. Basically, you take 30, which is the whole pie, and then you add 60% more because 160 is 100% + 60%, which gives you 48. So, yeah, 48 is the answer.
The percent of increase from 30 to 39 is: 30%
30 percent of 40.00 = 12.00
10%+30%=40%
There is a quick way to solve many of these questions. A quick way to do this in your head, is to break down the result. You want 35% You have 15% What is 35%? Two 15%(30) and 1/3rd of a 15%(5). If you double the known number, you get the answer to the question of 30% of the number is 12 is 15% of it. So, 12 + 12 is 30% Now you are 5% off. 1/3rd of 15% is 5% so 1/3rd of 12 is 4 Now you know that 30% of the number would be 24 and 5% of the number would be 4 Add the two and get your answer.
To find the percent of anything, you change the percent to a decimal, and multiply. Finding the percent of a sum is no different. ex: 10% of (30 + 100) I can use the distributive property to take 10% of 30, then add 10% of 100. .10(30 + 100) = .10*30 + .10*100 = 3 + 10 = 13 In order to see how this works, let's not distribute. .10(30+100) and instead, add 30 +100 first, then take the percent. .10(130) = 13 We get the same answer! You can take the percent of the whole thing, or you can take the percent of the pieces that add up to the whole.
.30 is one way
You get 17.
49.95
The answer would be 17.
To find 30 percent of a number, multiply the number by 0.3. In this instance, 0.3 x 185.00 = 55.5. If the number refers to a unit of currency, don't forget to add the appropriate unit and add an extra trailing zero.
A quick way to do percents of a number is to break the percent down into a multiple of ten and another number, if the percent is evenly divisible. 30% = 10% * 3 Taking 10% of anything is easy, you just move the decimal to the left 1 place. 10% of 32 = 3.2 Now you just have the 3 to take care of: 3 * 3.2 = 9.6 And there is your answer.
