What is $60\%$ of 120 ?

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

To find a percentage of a whole number, we will multiply the percentage by the whole number. We get

$60\% \cdot 120$

$\frac{60}{100} \cdot 120$

$\frac{60}{100} \cdot \frac{120}{1}$

$\frac{6}{10} \cdot \frac{120}{1}$

$\frac{6}{1} \cdot \frac{12}{1}$

$\frac{6 \cdot 12}{1 \cdot 1}$

$\frac{72}{1}$

Therefore, $60\%$ of 120 is .

We can cancel the zeros to simplify. We get

$\frac{3}{10} \cdot \frac{250}{1}$

$\frac{3}{1} \cdot \frac{25}{1}$

$\frac{3 \cdot 25}{1 \cdot 1}$

$\frac{75}{1}$

Therefore, $30\%$ of 250 is .

$\frac{6}{10} \cdot \frac{350}{1}$

$\frac{6}{1} \cdot \frac{35}{1}$

$\frac{6 \cdot 35}{1 \cdot 1}$
