Percentage Of Amount
1. State the problem: We need to find 50p as a percentage of 3.64.
2. Convert to the same units: 50p is 4 in pounds, so 50p = 0.50 pounds.
3. Use the percentage formula:
$$\text{Percentage} = \left(\frac{\text{part}}{\text{whole}}\right) \times 100$$
Substitute the values:
$$\text{Percentage} = \left(\frac{0.50}{4.64}\right) \times 100$$
4. Calculate the fraction:
$$\frac{0.50}{4.64} \approx 0.1077586$$
5. Multiply by 100 to get the percentage:
$$0.1077586 \times 100 = 10.77586$$
6. Round to two decimal places:
$$10.78\%$$
Final Answer: 50p is approximately 10.78% of 4.64.
