OpenStudy (eyust707):

Well 30% is 30 "per" "cent" per means parts cent means 100

OpenStudy (eyust707):

30% is 30 parts of 100

OpenStudy (eyust707):

30% = 30/100

OpenStudy (eyust707):

"of" means "multiply"

OpenStudy (eyust707):

30% of 47.50 Is the same as \({30 \over 100} * 47.50\)

OpenStudy (chrisneedshelp):

OpenStudy (eyust707):

\[{30 \over 100} * 47.50\]
