Break it down this way:
150% of 500 = (100% of 500)+(50% of 500)
= 500 + 250
= 750

∙ 12y agoTo find 500 percent of a number, multiply the number by 5. In this instance, 5 x 150 = 750. Therefore, 500 percent of 150 is equal to 750.
150
"30 percent" means 0.3 .0.3 x 500 = 150
10% of 500 = 50 30% = 50 x 3 =150 Now to increase 500 by 30%: 500 + 150 = 650
500 - 150 = 350
Let that something be x: 150+x = 500 x = 500-150 x = 350
30 500*0.3=150 150*0.2=30
150 is 30% of 500.

"30 percent" means 0.3 .0.3 x 500 = 150
10/500 x 100 = 2 Therefore, 10 is 2 percent of 500.
30/100=x/500. 500*30/100=150
10% of 500 = 50 30% = 50 x 3 =150 Now to increase 500 by 30%: 500 + 150 = 650
30/100 x 500 = 150
15070% off of 500= 70% discount applied to 500= 500 - (70% * 500)= 500 - (0.70 * 500)= 500 - 350= 150
It would be $150. To find this, first take 10% of 500, which would be 50. Then triple that number to find what 30% would be, which is $150 off.
Just do .3 multipled by 5 1.5 is the answer
