work out 10% and times it by 4... 10% is 3.5 so 40% is 14.

first make sure you understand the meaning of 40%
% means 1/100th of ....
so 40% is 40/100 or 0.4
0.4 of 35 is 4/10 x 35 = 14

the way i do it , going round the trees a bit but,
i get 10% of 35 = 3.5 then id times it by 4
3.5 x 4(because 4x10=40) = 14 so then u have
40% of 35 = 14.
hope it helps.

To work out a percentage, multiply the percentage required (put a decimal point in front of the number) by the total amount.. ie 0.40 x 35 = 14

40/100 = 0.4
0.4 * 35 = 14

whole amount times the percentage you want and divide by 100
in this instance 35X40 divide by 100 it equals 14 btw.

in response to fistenpumpen's most unhelpful and downright rude answer, why bother. do you sit on-line all day and answer geniuine quetions with obnoxious answers? its clear that "going to school" is not the be all and end all of being clever.
