Without a calculator, how do you find 4% of £300?

Sagot :

The best thing to do is to find out what 1% is. To do this, you have to divide 300 by 100, 300/100= 3. Therefore, 4% must be 3x4, which is 12. Therefore, 4% of £300 is £12 Hope this helps :)
So,

You could do it 2 ways:

1:
Find 1% of 300
To find 1% move the decimal point 2 places to the left.
300 ==> 3.00 or 3

Next you multiply that number by whatever amount percent you need.
In this case:
3(4) = x
12 = x


2: 
Multiply 300 by .4
300(.4) = x
12 = x

I prefer the first one, but it's your choice.
