15 is what percent of 200?
To find the answer to this question, we need to use a simple percentage formula:
Percent = (Part/Whole) × 100
In this case, the part is 15 and the whole is 200. Let's plug in the numbers:
Percent = (15/200) × 100
To calculate the percentage, we need to divide 15 by 200, and then multiply the result by 100.
Percent = 0.075 × 100
Percent = 7.5
So, 15 is 7.5% of 200.
Example:
If you have a total of 200 items, and 15 of them are defective, then the defective items make up 7.5% of the total.
Reverse Calculation:
If you want to find the number that is 7.5% of 200, you can use the same formula in reverse:
Number = (Percent/100) × Whole
Number = (7.5/100) × 200
Number = 0.075 × 200
Number = 15
As expected, the result is 15, which is the original number we were looking for.
I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any other questions.
