New question loaded Solve this problem, and identify the percent, amount, and base. What percent 60 of is 45 ?

Answer 1

To solve the problem "What percent 60 of is 45 ?", we can use the formula for calculating percentage:

\[ \text{Percentage} = \left(\frac{\text{Part}}{\text{Whole}}\right) \times 100 \]

In this case:

• Part = 45 (the amount we want to find the percentage of)
• Whole = 60 (the base that we are using)

Now we can substitute the values into the formula:

\[ \text{Percentage} = \left(\frac{45}{60}\right) \times 100 \]

Calculating the fraction:

\[ \frac{45}{60} = 0.75 \]

Now multiply by 100 to get the percentage:

\[ 0.75 \times 100 = 75 \]

Thus, 45 is 75% of 60.

To summarize:

• Percent = 75%
• Amount = 45
• Base = 60
