What is 90 percent of 270 pounds?

Answer 1

90% of 270 lbs would be the same as first calculating 10% of 270 than multiplying your result by 9. 10% of any number is probably the easiest thing to find once you know my shortcut. Finding 10% of any number simply requires moving the decimal point ONEplace to the left. So 10% of 270 would be 27.0 or 27.

Now simply multiply 27 by 9, 7 x 9 = 63 and (9 x 2) + 6 = 24 So, 27 x 9 = 243 lbs.
