Answer 1

Compute 12% of $1200

\(0.12\times $1200\)

Answer 2

Can even do a little bit of simple "mental math" here and do it in your head.

Notice that 12% = 10% + 1% + 1%

10% of 1200 = 120 (move decimal 1 place over)
1% of 1200 = 12 (move decimal 2 places over)

So 120+12+12= 12% of 1200

Answer 3

OpenStudy values the Learning process - not the ‘Give you an answer’ process.
Don’t post only answers - guide the asker to a solution.

And if anything is more pathetic than jumping into a post to hand out an answer, it's to do so, and then beg for a medal.

Medals are a nice "thank you", but I care more about the student actually having an opportunity to LEARN something.
