Answer:

5%

Explanation:

To express 50 cents as percentage of 10 dollars, we need to divide 50 cents by 10 dollars in same unit, then multiply by 100.

To convert 10.00 dollars into cents,

1 dollar = 100 cents

10 dollar = 100×10 cents

= 1000 cents

Let the percentage of 50cents be x%

$x\% = (\frac{50}{1000} \times 100)$

$x\% = \frac{50 \times 100}{1000}$

$x\% = \frac{5000}{1000}$

$x\% = 5$

Therefore, 50 cent is 5% of 10.00 or 10 dollars.
