$4 is what percent of $80?

Question

Write your answer using a percent sign (%). For example, 0.5%, 12.7%, or 56%.

Answer 1

To find out what percent $4 is of $80, you can use the formula:

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

Here, the "Part" is $4 and the "Whole" is $80. Plugging in these values, we have:

\[ \text{Percentage} = \left( \frac{4}{80} \right) \times 100 \]

Calculating the fraction:

\[ \frac{4}{80} = 0.05 \]

Now, multiplying by 100 to get the percentage:

\[ 0.05 \times 100 = 5 \]

Thus, $4 is 5% of $80.

The final answer is:

\[ \boxed{5%} \]
