Hello! 5,10,15,20, all percents that a are multiples of ten are fairly easiy. Just use 10% as your guide. 10 % of 372.62=

37.26 then divide that by 2=18.63

If you were looking for 15 % you would 10% 37.26 then do half of that18.63 and add them together=55.89

20%=37.26 x 2=74.52

Since I am not very good at math, maybe some of the otherfolks can teach you about percentages in general where you use a formula ….multiply by something divide by some thing else…. I have to rely onthe simle things I know..such as money. I can figure out if 33% percent off makes it a good deal for meHAHA. Best of luck!

First, figure 10% by moving the decimal point one space to the left. So 10% of it is 37.262. Then, divide 37.262 in half to get 5%.

Do 372.62 divided by 100 to get 1%, then multiply the answer by 5 to get 5%.

372.62/100 = 3.762 x 5 = 18.631

First change the percentage into decimal form by moving the decimal to the left two spaces. You get .05 then multiply it by the number you want the percentage of.

.05 x 372.62 = 18.631

5% is the same thing as .05

so to get .05 of that # you multiply .05times that number.

best,

I won’t do it for you, but convert the percentage to a decimal, then multiply… Simple.
