24.5
Take %10 and make it a decimal which is .1 (move the decimal 2 places to the right) and multiply it by 245 and get 24.5

Move the decimal in the percentage two digits to the left and multiply. So 10% becomes .10
.10 * 245 = 24.5

Here's the general rule for doing these types of problems:
Change "what" to "x"
Change "is" to "="
and change "of" to multiplication.
So "What is 10% of 245" becomes
x = 0.10 * 245, which means x = 24.5

for these types of problems you change the percent (10%) to a decimal (.10)
then you multiply the two.
for this problem you do 245 x .10 which is 24.5
