To determine what 35% of 140 is, we start by converting the percentage into a decimal. Since percentages are based on a total of 100, we divide 35 by 100, which yields 0.35.
Next, we multiply this decimal by the number we want to find the percentage of, which in this case is 140. Thus, we perform the calculation:
0.35×140When you multiply 0.35 by 140, the result is 49. Therefore, we can conclude that 35% of 140 is 49.
This method for calculating percentages can be applied universally: simply convert the percentage to a decimal and then multiply it by the specified number.
Understanding how to compute percentages is an essential skill in GCSE Maths, as it is relevant to a variety of topics including probability, statistics, and real-life applications such as calculating discounts and interest rates. Regular practice of these calculations will enhance your confidence in tackling various types of percentage problems.
