Let's solve each problem step by step. The goal is to find the
percentage of a number.
We use the formula:
$$
\text{Percentage of a number} = \frac{\text{Percentage}}{100} \times \text{Number}

First Column (Without Calculator)
1.
15% of 80
$$
\frac{15}{100} \times 80 = 0.15 \times 80 = 12
$$
2.
25% of 40
$$
\frac{25}{100} \times 40 = 0.25 \times 40 = 10
$$
3.
30% of 90
$$
\frac{30}{100} \times 90 = 0.30 \times 90 = 27
$$
4.
40% of 75
$$
\frac{40}{100} \times 75 = 0.40 \times 75 = 30
$$
5.
20% of 150
$$
\frac{20}{100} \times 150 = 0.20 \times 150 = 30
$$
6.
35% of 10
$$
\frac{35}{100} \times 10 = 0.35 \times 10 = 3.5
$$
7.
60% of 60
$$
\frac{60}{100} \times 60 = 0.60 \times 60 = 36
$$
8.
25% of 60
$$
\frac{25}{100} \times 60 = 0.25 \times 60 = 15
$$
9.
10% of 33
$$
\frac{10}{100} \times 33 = 0.10 \times 33 = 3.3
$$
10.
90% of 200
$$
\frac{90}{100} \times 200 = 0.90 \times 200 = 180
$$

Second Column (Can Use Calculator if Needed)
11.
85% of 108
$$
\frac{85}{100} \times 108 = 0.85 \times 108 = 91.8
$$
12.
40% of 88
$$
\frac{40}{100} \times 88 = 0.40 \times 88 = 35.2
$$
13.
15% of 68
$$
\frac{15}{100} \times 68 = 0.15 \times 68 = 10.2
$$
14.
55% of 28
$$
\frac{55}{100} \times 28 = 0.55 \times 28 = 15.4
$$
15.
30% of 480
$$
\frac{30}{100} \times 480 = 0.30 \times 480 = 144
$$
16.
27% of 235
$$
\frac{27}{100} \times 235 = 0.27 \times 235 = 63.45
$$
17.
44% of 97
$$
\frac{44}{100} \times 97 = 0.44 \times 97 = 42.68
$$
18.
62% of 82
$$
\frac{62}{100} \times 82 = 0.62 \times 82 = 50.84
$$
19.
47% of 67
$$
\frac{47}{100} \times 67 = 0.47 \times 67 = 31.49
$$
20.
82% of 124
$$
\frac{82}{100} \times 124 = 0.82 \times 124 = 101.68
$$

💡 Tips for Solving Without a Calculator:
-
10% of a number: Move decimal one place left.
-
5%: Half of 10%
-
25%: Divide by 4
-
50%: Divide by 2
-
1%: Move decimal two places left
- Use these to build other percentages (e.g., 15% = 10% + 5%)
