Question

What percent of 80 is 24?

Answer 1

24/80 should get you your answer.

If I had $24 dollars, that would be 24% of $100, right? By dividing 24/100, I should get that percent. So just replace 100 with 80.

Answer 2

Let the percentage be x. So,
(x/100)*80=24
x/100=24/80
Divide 24/80 by 8, we have:
x/100=3/10
10x=300
Or, x=300/10
So, x=30 is your answer :)
