How do i figure those out? I don't whant the answer I wanna know how to sovle them.

Answer 1

You turn the percent into a decimal by moving the decimal point two places to the left. Then multiply. For instance -- 30% = 0.3. So 30% of 256 = 0.3 * 256.

You turn the fraction into a decimal by dividing the numerator by the denominator and then multiplying.

Answer 4

It might be easiest to first write your comparison as a fraction..55/100, 13/39, etc. Then you put you denominator (bottom number) on the outside of a division problem and it will give you the decimal. 55 divided by 100
13 divided by 39
2.5 divided by 10, etc.
Good luck!

Answer 5

The word "of" in a math problem almost always indicates that you'll need to multiply:

14. 30% of 256 = .30 x 256 = ?

15. 25% of 2,048 = .25 x 2048 = ?

Answer 8

13 out of 39 = 13/39
Divide 39 into 13

2.5 out of 10 = 2.5/10
Divide 10 into 2.5

Answer 9

does divide into just mean divide

Answer 10

To divide 13 into 39 is the same thing as to dive 39 by 13 -- different way to say it, but the process is the same.
