1. The problem asks: What percent is 60 of 80?
2. To find what percent one number is of another, use the formula:
$$\text{Percent} = \left(\frac{\text{Part}}{\text{Whole}}\right) \times 100$$
3. Substitute the given values: Part = 60, Whole = 80
$$\text{Percent} = \left(\frac{60}{80}\right) \times 100$$
4. Simplify the fraction:
$$\frac{60}{80} = \frac{3}{4} = 0.75$$
5. Multiply by 100 to convert to percent:
$$0.75 \times 100 = 75$$
6. Therefore, 60 is 75 percent of 80.
