Q. What is

15 \%

of

740 ?

\newline

Answer:

Understand the problem: Understand the problem. $\newline$ We need to calculate $15\%$ of $740$ . This means we need to find out what $15$ out of every $100$ parts of $740$ would be. To do this, we can convert the percentage to a decimal and multiply it by the total amount.
Convert to decimal: Convert the percentage to a decimal. $\newline$ To convert a percentage to a decimal, we divide it by $100$ . So, $15\%$ becomes $15 \div 100 = 0.15$ .
Multiply by total amount: Multiply the decimal by the total amount. $\newline$ Now we multiply the decimal form of the percentage by the total amount to find the part of the total that represents $15\%$ . So, $0.15 \times 740 = 111$ .
