What percent of 50 is 36? Please explain.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

There is an equation for this,\[\frac{ a }{b }=\frac{ p }{100 }\], but the easiest way to find it would be to divide 36 by 50 and convert the decimal to a percentage.

You just multiply .50 times 36 as well which is easier and quicker

Just to say that's incorrect Spider, that halves 36 and give you 18, not the correct answer

OpenStudy (anonymous):
