Which is bigger, 60% of 90 or 1/2 of 100?

Sagot :

[tex]60\% \ of \ 90= \frac{60}{100}*90= \frac{6}{10}*90= \\\\ =6*9\to\boxed{54} \\\\\\\\ \frac{1}{2} \ of \ 100= \frac{1}{2}*100\to\boxed{50} \\\\ \boxed{54>50} \\\\ 60 \% \ of \ 90 > \frac{1}{2} \ of \ 100[/tex]
60% of 90 = 60/100 x 90 = 0.6 x 90 = 54
1/2 of 100 = 1/2 x 100 = 0.5 x 100 = 50
so 60% of 90 is bigger than 1/2 of 100 
Hope this Helps :D
