Answer key · Set C
Percent: One Step More
125 5 of 20 is 1 of every 4. 1 of every 4 is 25 out of 100, which is 25 percent.
270 Stars are 40 and moons are 30, so 70 stickers out of 100 are not hearts. That is 70 percent.
335/100 Percent means out of 100, so 35 percent is 35/100.
41-D, 2-C, 3-B, 4-A 10% is one tenth: 9. 25% is one fourth: 10. 20% is one fifth: 12. 50% is one half: 35.
5360 45 percent is 40 percent and 5 percent: 4 × 80 + 40 = 360.
612 10 percent of 80 is 8 and 5 percent is 4. 8 + 4 = 12 dollars.
7True 75 percent is three fourths. One fourth of 20 is 5, so three fourths is 15.
8270 25 percent of 360 is 90. The rest is 360 − 90 = 270.
920.4 24 percent of 85 is 0.24 × 85 = 20.4, which is $20.40.
1090 40 percent is 36, so 10 percent is 9. 100 percent is 10 × 9 = 90 dollars.
11140 35 percent is 49 and 5 percent is 7. 100 percent is 20 times 5 percent: 20 × 7 = 140.
12C 10 percent of 60 is 6 and 5 percent is half of that, 3. 15 percent is 6 + 3 = 9.
