Answer 1

Actually, you should write it (28 / 120) * 100%.

To solve, divide 28 by 120.  I believe you will get .23333333333 or thereabouts (note: that's point two three three three etc., a value between zero and one).  Now multiply by 100 to get the final percentage.  You might want to round off after two or three digits to get twenty three point blah percent or something like that.

Answer 2

do 28/120. get the answer and multiply by 1.00 which eaquels 100.%. in percents you just move the decimal over 2 places to the left and make it a decimal

Answer 3

first, divide 28 by 120, and get the answer to that

then, you times that by 100

the answer will be your percentage

Answer 4

28/120 = 0.233333...

0.233333... x 100

(The decimal place will move 2 places to the right)

23.3% (To 1 dp)

Does that help?

Sorry, i hope it did. It's hard when i'm not there to show you.  

Answer 5

first 100 % means 100/100 = 1

therefore 28/120*100% means 28/120

which can be reduced to 7/30 which  further  

will give an answer as 0.23
