Find:

(a) 15% of 250


(b) 1% of 1 hour


(c) 20% of Rs. 2500


(d) 75% of 1 kg

(a) We need to find 15 % of 250


Therefore,


15 % of 250 = × 250


=


= 37.5


(b) We need to find 1% of 1 hour


We know that,


1 hour = 60 minutes


Therefore,


1 % of 1 hour = 1 % of 60 minutes


= × 60


= minutes


(c) We need to find 20% of Rs 2500


20 % of Rs 2500


Therefore,


20 % of Rs 2500 = × 2500


= 2 × 250


= Rs 500


(d) We need to find 75% of 1Kg


Therefore,


75 % of 1 kg = × 1


= 0.75 kg


We know that,


1 kg = 1000 g


Hence,


0.75 kg = (0.75 × 1000) g


= 750 g
