Answer 2

Answer :-

• 50% of 140 = 70.

Step-by-step explanation :-

Lets find 50% of 140.

$\sf50\% \: of \: 140$

Converting 50% into fraction and cutting off the zeroes,

$\sf \dfrac{5 \not0}{1 \not0 \not0} \times 14 \not0$

Reducing the numbers,

$\sf\dfrac{5}{1} \times 14$

$\sf \dfrac{5}{1}$ can also be written as 5.

So lets multiply the remaining numbers.

$\sf5 \times 14$

Multiplying them, we get :-

$\sf \Rightarrow70.$

So, 50% of 140 is 70.

To solve such problems, you just have to convert the percentage into fraction (by putting 100 as the denominator, since percentage is a fraction of 100), and then multiply it with the number you are finding the percentage of (For example, 50% of 140, this is the number you are going to multiply your fraction with). Now "of" means "times" so multiply the numbers and remove the "of" sign. The obtained number will be the answer to your question. See the answer given above by me to understand clearly.
