What number is 30% of 20?
Answer:
the answer is 6 and i think i was the first one who had the correct answer before but i couldnt answer so i put it in the comments for the question
Explanation:
30% of 20 = 6
could i get brainlest please?
30% of 20 = 6. A percentage is a number without any dimensions or established units of measurement.
What is percentage?A figure or ratio that is stated as a fraction of 100 is referred to as a percentage in mathematics.
Although the abbreviations "pct," "pct," and occasionally "pc" are also used, the percent symbol "%" is most frequently used to denote it. Long before the decimal system was invented, fractions that were multiples of 100 were frequently used in calculations.
For instance, Augustus imposed the centesima rerum venalium, a 1/100 tax, on items that were auctioned off. These fraction calculations are comparable to percentage computations.
Calculations with a denominator of 100 grew more prevalent during the Middle Ages as coin values increased, to the point where they were frequently seen in mathematics texts from the late 15th to the early 16th century.
These texts typically used the Rule of Three, interest rates, and profit and loss to describe these tactics. Interest rates were regularly stated in hundredths by the 17th century.
