Answer:

60%

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\bold{METHOD\ 1:}\\\\\text{Calculate what fraction of 30 is 18 and convert it to percent:}\\\\\dfrac{18}{30}=\dfrac{18:6}{30:6}=\dfrac{3}{5}\\\\\dfrac{3}{5}\cdot100\%=\dfrac{300}{5}\%=60\%[/tex]

[tex]\bold{METHOD\ 2:}\\\\\begin{array}{ccc}30&-&100\%\\\\18&-&p\%\end{array}\qquad\text{cross multiply}\\\\\\(30)(p)=(18)(100)\\\\30p=1800\qquad\text{divide both sides by 30}\\\\\dfrac{30p}{30}=\dfrac{1800}{30}\\\\p=60[/tex]
