Question

What is 20% of 95?

Answer 1

`19`

Explanation:

Taking a percentage of something is like multiplying it by a fraction, where the fraction is your percentage out of 100.

In your case, we would multiply `95*20/100` to get 19.

If this method doesn't make sense, think of it this way:
We know that 100% of something is just itself.
If it were to be 100%, it would be `95*100/100`, or just `95*1`. Your percentage (20 in this case) out of 100 can serve as your multiplier.
