Steps to find the percentage of a number

Method 1: Using Proportions

Let's find 90% of 0.5 using proportion.

90% is 90 out of 100.

\[ \frac{ 90 }{100} \]

Write the proportion to find x out of 0.5.

\[ \frac{ 90 }{100} = \frac{x}{ 0.5 } \]

Cross-multiply: 90 × 0.5 = 100x

\[ 90 \cdot 0.5 = 100x \]

Solve for x: (90 × 0.5) ÷ 100 = x

\[ \frac{ 45 }{100} = x \]

Hence, 90% of 0.5 is 0.45.

Method 2: Keyword-Based

Use keywords: "of" means multiply.

Convert 90% to decimal: 0.9

\[ x = 0.5 \cdot 0.9 \]

Multiply 0.5 × 0.9 = 0.45

So, 90% of 0.5 is 0.45.

Method 3: Formula-Based

Use the formula: percent × whole = part

Convert 90% to decimal: 0.9

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

0.5 × 0.9 = 0.45

Thus, 90% of 0.5 is 0.45.
