Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
A circle is 360 degrees. Comedy is 15%. We are asked in words, "How many degrees is 15% of 360?"
Let "how many degree" be x; the word "is" means =; 15% as a decimal is .15; the word "of" in this context means to multiply; and 360 is just 360. Putting all that together into an equation that we can solve for x:
x = .15(360). Multiply to get
x = 54 degrees
