The class teacher gave 150 tickets to Sunil of which he sold 60 percent. How many tickets did Sunil sold?

Given:

Class teacher gave$150$ tickets to Sunil.

So he could sell 60% of them.

 

To do: How many tickets did Sunil sell

Solution:

We need to find $60% of 150$

Percentage means “for every $100$” or "out of $100$." The (%) symbol as a quick way to write a fraction with a denominator of 100

So, $\frac{60\times150}{100}$

$6\times15=90$

Therefore, number of tickets Sunil sold = 90
