Question

How do i turn 80% 0f 86- i know the answer but i don't know how to do it

Can someone please teach me

Answer 1

We know that of refers to multiplication (from BODMAS)

% means per hundred, i.e., 1/100

So, 80% of 86 is:

(80/100) × 86

or (4/5) × 86

or 4 × 17.2

or 68.8

Hope you understand

Answer 2

Answer:

68.8

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be 80% of 86.

To find 80% of 86

$\frac{80}{100} = \frac{x}{86}$

$80 \times 86 = 100x$

$6880 = 100x$

$68.8 = x$

Or you can simply do it as:

$86 \times 80\%$

$86 \times \frac{80}{100}$

$\frac{86 \times 80}{100}$

$\frac{6880}{100}$

$68.8$
