ok so first you have to find 100% of the number.
Since this is 25% this can be done very easily by multiplying the 80 by 4 which will give you 100%. Then you will have to find 60% of that.

Alright I did that and got 320 is that correct?

anonymous · Answer

yes that is, now you have to find 60% of it. How do you multiply a number by a percent?

anonymous · Answer

anonymous · Answer
