100% = £3,000,000 1% = £30,000 3% = £90,000
10 % of 30 pounds is: (10 / 100) * 30 = 0.1 * 30 = 3 pounds
Percent means out of 100 → 3 percent of 100 g = 3/100 × 100 g = 3 g
10 pounds. The word "percent" (%) comes from the Latin "per centum", which means "for every hundred". 10 pounds is fifty percent of 20 pounds, because 10 is half of 20, and 50 is half of 100. Percentages make fractions easier to visualise, because they express proportions of 100, or to put that another way, the percentage is the number of hundredths the fraction is equivalent to. For example, which is bigger: three eights (3/8) or one third (1/3)? This is easier to see if we express each fraction as a percentage. 3/8 is 37.5 percent (100*3/8), and 1/3 is 33.3 percent (100*1/3). In other words, 3/8 is 37.5 hundredths, and 1/3 is 33.3 hundredths. From this, we can see easily that 3/8 is more than 1/3. For percentages of 20 pounds, each hundredth is worth 0.2 (20/100) pounds. So fifty percent (fifty hundredths) is worth 0.2 * 50 = 10 pounds. In this case the answer is very easy anyway, because fifty percent of something is always half of it, and half of 20 pounds is 10 pounds.
3% of 100 = 3% * 100 = 0.03 * 100 = 3
100% = £3,000,000 1% = £30,000 3% = £90,000
5% of 3 pounds = 3*5/100 =0.15 pounds. Then, depending on the units, 0.15 pounds = 15 pence or 2.4 ounces
10 % of 30 pounds is: (10 / 100) * 30 = 0.1 * 30 = 3 pounds
20% of 100 pounds is 20 pounds.
5% of 100 pounds= 5% * 100= 0.05 * 100= 5 pounds
3 percent out of 100 percent = 0.03 x 100 percent = 3 percent
100 pounds
2.5 pounds.
20% off of 35 pounds = 100-20 = 80 percent of 35 pounds = 35*80/100 = 28 pounds
Percent means out of 100 → 3 percent of 100 g = 3/100 × 100 g = 3 g
3 percent of 100 is 3
20 percent of 100 pounds is 20 pounds. Therefore, if there is 20 percent left in a 100-pound propane tank, there are 20 pounds of propane remaining in the tank.
