8. To find the percentage:
What is 96% of 50?
Change the rate to decimal numbers
96% = move 2 decimal places to the left (0.96)
And solve using the formula
P = Base x rate
= 50 x 0.96
P = 48 her score
9. Example
1. What is 80%
of 200?
P = B X R
= 200 X ( 0.8)
P = 160
2. Give 30 % of
150?
P = B x R
= 150 x (0.3)
P = 45
