10% of 76 is 7.6 so 20% is 15.2

0.2*76=15.2

Yes :) to find the percent of a number you must multiply the percent given (In this case 20%) by the number given (17) So you have \(20\% \times17\) 20% in decimal form is 0.2, so we can replace 20% with 0.2 in our expression \(20\%\times17\) \(0.2\times17\) Now you just multiply 0.2 by 17 and that is your answer!

Yes as @sammixboo said: the word "of" means multiply
