30 is what percent of 125?

Answer 1

125 is 100 percent.

125/100 =1.25 is 1 percent.

This value times 30 gives you the 30 percent.

Solution: 37.5

You can also use the 10% method. Any time you wish to find 10% of any number, move the decimal point one place to the left. The 1% method requires you to move two places to the left.

So in that example, 30% of 125, when we move the decimal one place to the left we result in 12.5, which is 10% of 125.

Now a simple multiplication or addition problem will yield the following:

12.5 x 3 = 37.50

12.5 + 12.5 + 12.5 = 37.50

Answer 2

We can figure this out without the use of a calculator by utilizing the 1 and 10 percent methods. The calculation of ten percent of any number is achieved by simply moving the decimal point one place value to the left. One percent is achieved by moving the decimal point two places of value to the left.

We'll start by calculating 10% of 125. Using the method above for ten percent, we would result in 12.5 being 10% of 125.

• 12.5 (10%) + 12.5 (10%) = 25.0 (20%)

Now, you should note that if we used another 10% we would go over the amount you've specified out of 125, that being 30. So now we need to utilize one percent method.

We'll start by calculating 1% of 125. Using the method mentioned in the first paragraph for one percent, we would result in 1.25 being 1% of 125. You can also achieve 1% by moving the decimal of 10% one place forward.

• 25.0 (20%) + 1.25 (1%) = 26.25 (21%)
• 26.25 (21%) + 1.25 (1%) = 27.50 (22%)
• 27.50 (22%) + 1.25 (1%) = 28.75 (23%)
• 28.75 (23%) + 1.25 (1%) = 30.00 (24%)

As you can see, we've achieved 30, which is 24% of 125.

OTHER SOLUTION:

percentage = 24%

% rate:

= 30/125 * 100%

= 0.24 * 100%

= 24%

Answer 3

125% means 125/100 = 1.25

1.25 * 30

= 37.5

=========( could call it 38 )

Answer 4
