Answer 5

there is a formula for this...the percent formula..

is/of = %/100

57 is what percent of 60..

"is" = 57
% = x
"of " = 60

now sub into the formula
57/60 = x/100 -- this is a proportion, so cross multiply
(60)(x) = (57)(100)
60x = 5700
x = 5700/60
x = 95

check..
57 is 95% of 60
57 = 0.95(60)
57 = 57 (correct)

your answer is 95%
