The question is: find 55% of $4.80...how do I find the answer?

Sagot :

4.80 = 100%
   x   = 55%

Cross Multiply

100 * x = 55 * 4.80
100x = 264
x = 264
      100
x = 2.64

Solution: $2.64
Percentages are out of one, so finding the x% of anything is just multiplying that thing by some decimal value defined by x. In this case, since x is 55, you multiply by .55. If it was 5%, you would multiply by .05, 34% .34, and so on. 4.8*.55=2.64.
