Question

What is 40% of 1200 ?

Open in App
Solution

"Percent" or "%" means "out of 100" or "per 100".
Therefore 40% can be written as 40100.
When dealing with percents the word "of " means "times" or "to multiply ".
Putting this altogether we can write this equation and solve for n while keeping the equation balanced :
n=40100×1200
n=48000100
n=480
