Question

what percent of 1.5 m is 60 cm​

Answer 1

Answer: 1.5m/60cm X100

150cm/60cm X 100 = 250%

Answer 2

• As per the data given in the question, we have to find the value of the expression.

             Given data:- $x\ \% \ of\ 1.5\ m\ is\ 60\ cm.$

             To find:-Value of given expression=?

             Solution:-

• A percentage is a fraction of an amount expressed as a particular number of hundredths of that amount.

• It is denoted by ($%$$\%$).

• We are using the unitary method to calculate the percentage of numbers.

• Fractions can be converted into percentages and vice-versa.

              $x\ \% \ of\ 1.5\ m\ is\ 60\ cm\\\Rightarrow \frac{x}{100} \times 150\ cm=60\ cm \\\Rightarrow \frac{150x}{100\ cm} =60\ cm.\\\Rightarrow \frac{3x}{2\ cm} \\\Rightarrow 3 x=60 \times 2 \\\Rightarrow x=60 \times \frac{2}{3}\\ \Rightarrow x=40\%.$

         Hence we will get $40 \% \text { of } 1.5 \mathrm{~m} \text { is } 60 \mathrm{~cm}.$
