Evaluate the following

20 percent (%) of 50 is what number?

Set up our equation

Let's call our missing number x.

Expressing this in terms of an equation:
we get: 20% * 50 = x

Build percentage

x  =  20 * 50
  100

x  =  1000
  100

Since our fraction is not reduced, we need to calculate a greatest common factor

From that lesson, we have a GCF of 100

Dividing numerator and denominator by our 100, we get 10/1

Final Answer


20 percent (%) of 50 is 10 or 10/1
