How much is 20 percent of three quarters

How to work out percentages - Step by Step

Here are the solutions to the questions stated above:

1) What is 20% of 3/4?

Always use this formula to find a percentage:

^% / ₁₀₀ = ^Part / _Whole replace the given values:

²⁰ / ₁₀₀ = ^Part / _3/4

Cross multiply:

20 x 3/4 = 100 x Part, or

15 = 100 x Part

Now, divide by 100 and get the answer:

Part = ¹⁵ / ₁₀₀ = 0.6

2) 20 is what percent of 3/4?

Use again the same percentage formula:

^% / ₁₀₀ = ^Part / _Whole replace the given values:

^% / ₁₀₀ = ²⁰ / _3/4

Cross multiply:

% x 3/4 = 20 x 100

Divide by 3/4 and get the percentage:

% = ^{20 x 100} / _3/4 = 2666.6666666667%
