 CLAST TEST # 3 :                   

 18. What is 20% of 12  
   
    A)  1.20           B) 2.00               C)  3.00             D) 2.4     

         

 Solution:
              To determine percent of a number, change the percent to a fraction or decimal and multiply.

              Changing 20% to a fraction:
              20% = 20/100
              20% = 1/5
            
              Multiplying:  (1/5)(12)
              (1/5)(12) = 12/5
              12/5 = 2.4
 
 Answer:   D) 2.4
