\[ \frac{ 60 }{100} = \frac{x}{ 7.1 } \]

Cross-multiply: 60 × 7.1 = 100x

\[ 60 \cdot 7.1 = 100x \]

Solve for x: (60 × 7.1) ÷ 100 = x

\[ \frac{ 426 }{100} = x \]

Hence, 60% of 7.1 is 4.26.

Method 2: Keyword-Based

Use keywords: "of" means multiply.

Convert 60% to decimal: 0.6

\[ x = 7.1 \cdot 0.6 \]

\[ \text{Percentage} \cdot \text{Whole} = \text{Part} \]

7.1 × 0.6 = 4.26

Thus, 60% of 7.1 is 4.26.
