Answer:

30%

Step-by-step explanation:

18 / 60 = .3 * 100 = 30%

Answer:

The percent of the the corn seeds is 30%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Because when you calculate 60% and 18% will get a percent 30%.

Solution for 18 is what percent of 60:

18:60*100 =

( 18*100):60 =

1800:60 = 30

Now we have: 18 is what percent of 60 = 30

Question: 18 is what percent of 60?

Percentage solution with steps:

Step 1: We make the assumption that 60 is 100% since it is our output value.

Step 2: We next represent the value we seek with $x$.

Step 3: From step 1, it follows that $100\%=60$.

Step 4: In the same vein, $x\%=18$.

Step 5: This gives us a pair of simple equations:

$100\%=60(1)$.

$x\%=18(2)$.

Step 6: By simply dividing equation 1 by equation 2 and taking note of the fact that both the LHS

(left hand side) of both equations have the same unit (%); we have

$\frac{100\%}{x\%}=\frac{60}{18}$

Step 7: Taking the inverse (or reciprocal) of both sides yields

$\frac{x\%}{100\%}=\frac{18}{60}$

$\Rightarrow x=30\%$

Therefore, $18$ is $30\%$ of $60$.
