Answer :

To determine the percentage that 20 is from 50 we will use the following relationship:

[tex]P=\frac{20}{50}\times100_{}[/tex]

Solving the operations:

[tex]P=\frac{2}{5}\times100=0.4\times100=40[/tex]

Therefore, 20 is 40% of 50.

The base of a percentage is the whole. In this case, the base is 50 and the amount is 20.
