Jeff answered 24 questions correctly on a 30 question quiz. What percent did he answer correctly?

First, lets put it into a fraction. 24 out of 30. 24/30. Fractions basically mean division, so divide 24 by 30. You get 0.8. Now, to convert it to percent, you have to move the decimal two places to the right. Fill in the 0 in the now empty space. The answer is 80%

so 24 questions out of 30 24/30 percent means parts out of 100 so x%=x/100 convert the bottom number to 100 multiply the whole thing by 10/10 240/300 multiply the fraction by (1/3)/(1/3) 80/100=80% another way  is 24/30 divide completely 0.80/1 multiply by 100/100 since bottom number must be 100 80/100=80% answe ris 80%
