Find:
(a) 15% of 250 (b) 1% of 1 hour
(c) 20% of Rs 2500 (d) 75% of 1 kg

Solution

(a) $15 % o f 250 = \frac{15}{100} \times 250 = \frac{75}{2} = 37.5$

(b) 1 hour = 60 minutes

$1 % o f 60 m i n u t e s = \frac{1}{100} \times 60 = \frac{3}{5} m i n u t e s$

(c) $20 % o f R s 2500 = \frac{20}{100} \times 2500 = R s 500$

(d) $75 % o f 1 k g = \frac{75}{100} \times 1 = 0.75 k g = (0.75 \times 1000) g = 750 g$
