What Percent is 10 of 50?

We need to find what percentage 10 is of 50.

Part (the amount we have): 10

Whole (the total): 50

We're asking: "10 out of 50 is how many percent?"

To find what percent one number is of another, we use:

Percentage = (Part ÷ Whole) × 100

This gives us the part as a fraction of the whole, then converts to a percentage.

Step 1: Divide the part by the whole:

Step 2: Multiply by 100 to convert to percent:

0.2 × 100 = 20%

10 is 20% of 50.

This means if you had 50 items and took 10 of them,

you would have 20% of the total.
