Here we will show you how to calculate 80 percent of 240 (80% of 240). We start by making an equation. 80 percent of 240 is the same as 80 per hundred of 240. We can therefore make the following equation:
80/100 = A/240
To solve the equation above for A (Amount), we first switch the sides to get the A on the left side. Then, we multiply each side by 240. Finally, we divide the numerator by the denominator on the right side to get the answer. Here is the work to illustrate:
80/100 = A/240
A/240 = 80/100
A×240/240 = 80×240/100
A = 19200/100
A = 192
The work above shows the long way to explain how to calculate 80 percent of 240. This gives you a foundation and a better understanding of how to calculate percentages. However, in the future, you could use this simplified formula:
(B × P)/100
In our problem, "What is 80 percent of 240?", B (Base) is 240 and P (Percent) is 80:
(240 × 80)/100 = 192
In summary, the answer to "What is 80 percent of 240?" is as follows:
