How do i find the percentige of a number like for example: 10
plz help i have a test on friday

Example: What is 10% of 150?

Step-by-step explanation:

Convert the problem to an equation using the percentage formula: P% * X = Y

P is 10%,    X is 150,   so the equation is 10% * 150 = Y

Convert 10% to a decimal by removing the percent sign and dividing by 100: 10/100 = 0.10

Substitute 0.10 for 10% in the equation: 10% * 150 = Y becomes 0.10 * 150 = Y

Do the math: 0.10 * 150 = 15

Y = 15

So 10% of 150 is 15

Double check your answer with the original question: What is 10% of 150? Multiply 0.10 * 150 = 15
