Answer: 22.32
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]46\ \frac{1}{2}\%[/tex] is a mixed number.
First we transform this mixed number to its decimal form
Therefore [tex]46\ \frac{1}{2}\%[/tex] is the same as:[tex](46+\frac{1}{2})\%=46.5\%[/tex]
To calculate 46.5% of 48 we must multiply 48 by 0.465 as shown below:
[tex]48*0.465 =22.32[/tex]
Finally we have that the 46.5% of 48 is 22.32
