that's about as simple a way as I can see.
10% is easy to figure, and you go from there.
.15(80) = .10*80 + (.10*80)/2
To find 15 percent of eighty dollars, you can use the following simple method:
1. Start by finding 10 percent of eighty dollars. To do this, divide eighty by ten: 80 ÷ 10 = 8 dollars.
2. Next, find half of eight dollars. Since half of a number is the same as dividing it by two, divide eight by two: 8 ÷ 2 = 4 dollars.
3. Finally, add the result from step 1 (8 dollars) to the result from step 2 (4 dollars): 8 + 4 = 12 dollars.
Therefore, fifteen percent of eighty dollars is twelve dollars.
