Let’s solve each percentage problem step by step.
Remember: To find a percentage of a number, you multiply the number by the percentage (as a decimal).
For example: 20% of 50 → 0.20 × 50 = 10
We’ll go one by one:
---
1a. 20% of 50
→ 20% = 0.20
→ 0.20 × 50 =
10
1b. 50% of 80
→ 50% = 0.50
→ 0.50 × 80 =
40
---
2a. 50% of 100
→ 0.50 × 100 =
50
2b. 70% of 70
→ 70% = 0.70
→ 0.70 × 70 =
49
---
3a. 80% of 30
→ 80% = 0.80
→ 0.80 × 30 =
24
3b. 60% of 30
→ 60% = 0.60
→ 0.60 × 30 =
18
---
4a. 30% of 30
→ 30% = 0.30
→ 0.30 × 30 =
9
4b. 10% of 10
→ 10% = 0.10
→ 0.10 × 10 =
1
---
5a. 20% of 80
→ 0.20 × 80 =
16
5b. 80% of 10
→ 0.80 × 10 =
8
---
6a. 20% of 0
→ Anything times 0 is 0 →
0
6b. 60% of 90
→ 0.60 × 90 =
54
---
7a. 10% of 70
→ 0.10 × 70 =
7
7b. 70% of 0
→ Again, anything times 0 is 0 →
0
---
8a. 20% of 60
→ 0.20 × 60 =
12
8b. 50% of 50
→ 0.50 × 50 =
25
---
Final Answer:
1a. 10
1b. 40
