Answer the following questions.

Question

(b) What percent of 72 is 18?

Answer 1

(a) To find 45% of 60, you can multiply 60 by 0.45:

$$45$$

So, 45% of 60 is 27.

(b) To find what percent of 72 is 18, you can use the formula:

$$\text{Percent}=\left(\frac{\text{Part}}{\text{Whole}}\right)\times 100$$

Where the part is 18 and the whole is 72:

$$\text{Percent}=\left(\frac{18}{72}\right)\times 100=0.25\times 100=25$$

So, 18 is 25% of 72.
