how do i find an easy way to work out 3 per cent of £1000.00?

Answer 1

divide by 100 and then times by three

Answer 2

To find 1% of anything divide by 100 as 100% is the whole thing.
Once you have a figure for 1% of anything you can multiply that by the percentage you need.
i.e. 1000
------- = 10 which is 1%
100

10 x 3 = 30 which is 3% of 1000

Answer 3

Move the decimal point two places to the left and multiply the result by 3.

"Percent" means "per hundred". So 1 percent of 1000 is 10. Multiply that by 3 and you have 30, or 3% of 1000.

Answer 4

£30

Answer 5

Well 3% of 100 is obviously 3. Therefore 3% of 1000 must be 30.

Another cool way is to use Google. Just search for "3% of 1000"
Google will work as a calculator and diplay the answer.

Answer 6

10% would be 100, so 3% would be 30

Answer 7

£1000 is 100%
divide by ten and you get 10%, which is effectively lobbing a 0 off the end.
£100 divided into ten chunks = £10, that's 1%, or effectively removing two zero's from your starting figure.
3% is three times this, therefore £30.

Answer 8

move 2 decimal points back and times by 3 = 30

Answer 9

Take your original figure and divide by 100 (this gives you 1%)
Then multiply by the amount you want - in this case 3!

(If you want to work out an increase e.g. VAT at 17.5 simply multiply by 117.5)

Answer 10

Find out 1% - i.e. knock of two zeros from the end (or move decimal point if not easy number). and then multiply by three. Surely easiest

Answer 11

1000/100*3.

then you take the awnser from 1000.

1000-30=970
