What percent is 3 of 40?

STEP 1

Assumptions1. We are given that A=3A =3 and B=40B =40. . We are using the percent formula A=PBA = PB where AA is percent of $B$.
3. We are asked to find the value of .

STEP 2

We can rearrange the percent formula to solve for $$.
=AB = \frac{A}{B}

STEP 3

Now, plug in the given values for AA and BB to calculate $$.
=340 = \frac{3}{40}

STEP 4

Calculate the value of $$.
=340=0.075 = \frac{3}{40} =0.075

STEP 5

The value of $$ is a decimal, but we want to express it as a percentage. To convert a decimal to a percentage, multiply by100.
%=0.075×100\% =0.075 \times100

STEP 6

Calculate the percentage.
%=0.075×100=.5%\% =0.075 \times100 =.5\%So,3 is.5% of40.
