Question

problem 10: spiral review
mentally evaluate the quantity.
6 is what percent of 10?

Explanation:

Step1: Set up percentage formula

To find what percent $a$ is of $b$, use $\text{Percent} = \frac{a}{b} \times 100\%$

Step2: Substitute values into formula

Substitute $a=6$, $b=10$: $\text{Percent} = \frac{6}{10} \times 100\%$

Step3: Simplify the expression

$\frac{6}{10} \times 100\% = 0.6 \times 100\% = 60\%$

Answer:

60%
