Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]5\% \: \: of \: \: 240[/tex]
[tex] \frac{x}{240} = \frac{5}{100} [/tex]
[tex](x)100 = (5)240[/tex]
[tex](x)100 = 1200[/tex]
[tex] \frac{(x)100}{100} = \frac{1200}{100} [/tex]
[tex]x = \frac{1200}{100} [/tex]
[tex]x = 12[/tex]
[tex]5\% \: \: of \: \: 240 \: \: is \: \: 12[/tex]
