How do you find what is 18% of 95?

Hint: Here in this question, we have to simplify the given term. The term is involving the symbol % implies the percentage. So, we write the percentage term into fraction form and then using the simple arithmetic operation we determine the solution for the question.

Complete step-by-step solution:
Now consider the question we have 18% of 95. The question is involving the symbol % which means percentage. The percentage number can be written in the form of fraction. The fraction contains both numerator and denominator parts. The word “of” represents the multiplication operation. While writing the percentage number into a fraction number, the value of numerator will be same but the value of denominator will be 100 so now the question is written as
\[ \Rightarrow \dfrac{{18}}{{100}} \times 95\]
First we simplify the fraction term.
The factors of the number 18 are 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 18.
The factors of the number 100 is 1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 20, 25, 50, 100
The common factor of 18 and 100 is 2. So divide the both numbers by 2 we have
\[ \Rightarrow \dfrac{9}{{50}} \times 95\]
On multiplying we get
\[ \Rightarrow \dfrac{{855}}{{50}}\]
Divide the both numbers i.e., 855 and 5 by 5 we get
\[ \Rightarrow \dfrac{{171}}{{10}}\]
Furthermore we cannot simplify the fraction. If we simplify for further the result will be in the form of decimal.

Note: The number can be converted from one form to the other form. For the conversion of numbers, we have some rule or method. By using the specific methods and rules we can convert the number. The fraction number has a numerator and denominator. The percentage is represented by the symbol %.
