WILL MARK YOU BRAINLIEST. Please help

You are purchasing a house for $360,000 and pay $72,000 for a down
payment up front. What percentage did you pay for the down payment?
*Make sure your answer is written as a percent.

20%

Step-by-step explanation:

Well, it's actually relatively simple.

The first thing to do would be to write this in a fraction form. You payed 72,000 out of 360,000.

72,000/360,000.

now you take that fraction, and convert it's to its decimal form which will give you a 0.2.

0.2 in decimal form is converted to 20.0% (when you convert a decimal to a fraction, you multiply by 100, or move the decimal two places to the right).

Another way to do this is simplifying the fraction.

take 72,000/360,000 and find what X is when

72,000/360,000 = x/100

you will find that 72,000/360,000 Is equal to 20/100. since percents are calculated as out of a hundred. your answer would still come out as 20%

yeah and the opposite of cheating is studying ( you should try it some time)
