Here are the solutions to the questions stated above:
1) What is 20% of 16?
Always use this formula to find a percentage:
% / 100 = Part / Whole replace the given values:
20 / 100 = Part / 16
Cross multiply:
20 x 16 = 100 x Part, or
320 = 100 x Part
Now, divide by 100 and get the answer:
Part = 320 / 100 = 3.2
2) What is 20 out of 16?
This question is equivalent to: "20 is what percent of 16?" Or What percent 20 is out of 16?
Use again the same percentage formula:
% / 100 = Part / Whole replace the given values:
% / 100 = 20 / 16
Cross multiply:
% x 16 = 20 x 100
Divide by 16 to get the percentage:
% = (20 x 100) / 16 = 125%
