someone good in figuring out precentage problems?

Question

what is 30% of say 792.00 and please refresh my memory how do you figure out precentage problems, do you divide or what.

Answer 1

792 x .30 = 237.60

that is how you calculate it.

you take the 30% and move the decimal point 2 places to the left and drop the % symbol.

Answer 2

30 % of 792.00 = 237.60

Drop the 2 zeros off of 792 because they are unnecessary

Change 30% to .30

Multiply 792 by .30 = 23760

move the decimal point (.) to the left 2 places

Answer 3

Percent means per 100. So to find 30% of 792, you multiply by 30 and divide by 100. As follows:

792 x 30/ 100 = 237.6

You see? Even I can do it !

Answer 4

Take the percentage number and divide by 100. Then multiply this answer times the number you wish to take a percentage of.

So, to use your example:

30% is the same as 30/100.

Multiply 30/100 times 792. This is the same as multiplying 30 times 792 and diving the answer by 100.

30 times 792 is 22860.
22860 divided by 100 is 228.60

Got it?
