Question

Answer 1

300*0.2 = 60

20 percent can also be seen as one-fifth, dividing 300 by 5 gives you the same answer.

We are both right, it's just two different methods. 300/5=60, same as lalaly!

Answer 6

so you can go different way.
i thik the easy way

300 = 100 %
300 /100 = 3
so 3 = 1%
3 * 20% = 60
so 60 = 20%
;-)
or you can get this formular
100% = 300
20% = x
calc
300*20% / 100% = 60
