To find the percentage of an amount, divide the amount by 100 and then multiply the resultant amount by the required number: for example, 10% of 12,000 is equal to 12,000/100x10. The answer is 1,200

To get 10 per cent of something, you just move the decimal point one place to the left. Therefore 12,000 becomes 1,200.0
Easy.

"%" means something divided by 100, so 10% is the fraction 10/100. Multiply this fraction by anything to get what "10%" is.
(10/100) * 12000 = 1200

To calculate percent of something, you convert the percentage to a decimal, and then multiply.
10 percent is 10 out of 100, right? So 10% = 0.10 (ten hundredths).
Multiply that by 12000
and get
0.10*12000 = 1200
Let's try another one:
52 percent of 1000.
52% = 0.52
0.52*1000 = 520.
make sense?

Just leave off one zero, hence 1 200.
