What is 34 percent of 50?

Answer 1

First, you change the percent to a decimal.

34% is 34/100, which equals .34

You multiply .34 and 50 together and you get 17.

So 34% of 50 is 17.

You can check your answer by thinking about it logically. You know that 50% of 50 is 25, so 34% has to be smaller than 25, but not by much. 17 is then a logical answer.

Answer 2

34 is 68% of 50, as 34/50=0.68.
