What is 60 out of 300=

Best Answer: In percentage problems the word "is" means = and the word "of" means times. Therefore your problem would look like this: 60 = x (300) now solve for x by dividing both sides by 300 60 / 300 = x now divide this out to a decimal or get a denominator of 100 which would be the percentage ...20 = 20% or 20 / 100 = 20 % That is the way I try to teach percentage problems.
