Question

Use the ratio table to solve the percent problem. What percent is 12 out of 20? 6% 12% 20% 60% A table displaying Part in one column and Whole in the other. The part column contains 12 and a question mark. The whole column contains 20 and 100.

Answer 1

The % is 60% as. (12*5)/(20*5)=60/100=60%

Answer 2

Answer:

The correct option is 4. So, 12 out of 20 is 60%.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given table is

Part column                      Whole column

      12                                        20

       ?                                        100

Let the missing value be x.

From the given table it is clearly noticed that

$20\times 5=100$

Similarly,

$12\times 5=x$

$x=60$

Since the part value is 60 when whole value is 100, therefore 12 out of 20 is 60%.
