1. 4.6
2. 4.4
3. 4.2
4. 4.05

Answer 1

Correct Answer - Option 3 : 4.2

Given:

12% of the number 35

Formula used:

Percentage = (Part value/Whole value) × 100

Calculation:

Let the part value be x.

⇒ Percentage = 12%

⇒ Whole value = 35

Applying the percentage formula

⇒ 12 = (x/35) × 100

⇒ x = (12 × 35)/100

⇒ x = 420/100

⇒ x = 4.2

∴ The 12% of 35 is 4.2.
