Question

$0.18 is what percent of $0.72?

Answer 1

Answer:

25%

Explanation:

Let the percentage = x%

$x\%\text{ of }0.72=0.18$

We then solve for x:

$\begin{gathered} \frac{x}{100}\times0.72=0.18 \\ 0.72x=0.18\times100 \\ 0.72x=18 \\ x=\frac{18}{0.72} \\ x=25 \end{gathered}$

Therefore, 25% of $0.72 is $0.18.
