Question: 1 / 400

If 60 is what percent of 12,000, what is the percentage?

0.5%

To find the percentage of 60 in relation to 12,000, you set up the equation:

\[

\text{Percentage} = \frac{\text{Part}}{\text{Whole}} \times 100

\]

In this case, the "part" is 60 and the "whole" is 12,000. Plugging in the values gives:

\[

\text{Percentage} = \frac{60}{12,000} \times 100

\]

Calculating the fraction first:

\[

\frac{60}{12,000} = 0.005

\]

Now multiplying by 100 to convert it into a percentage:

\[

0.005 \times 100 = 0.5\%

\]

Thus, 60 is 0.5% of 12,000. This makes the first choice the correct answer, as it accurately reflects the proportion of 60 in relation to the total of 12,000.
