40% of 150 + 60% of 150 = ____.

Options

A. 200
B. 150
C. 250
D. 180

Explanation

To solve the problem \( 40\% \text{ of } 150 + 60\% \text{ of } 150 \), we can follow these steps:

### Step 1: Calculate 40% of 150
To find 40% of 150, we can use the formula:
\[ \text{Percentage} = \frac{\text{Percentage Value}}{100} \times \text{Total Value} \]
So, for 40% of 150:
\[ 40\% \text{ of } 150 = \frac{40}{100} \times 150 \]
Calculating this gives:
\[ = 0.40 \times 150 = 60 \]

### Step 2: Calculate 60% of 150
Now, we will calculate 60% of 150 using the same formula:
\[ 60\% \text{ of } 150 = \frac{60}{100} \times 150 \]
Calculating this gives:
\[ = 0.60 \times 150 = 90 \]

### Step 3: Add the two results together
Now we add the results from Step 1 and Step 2:
\[ 60 + 90 = 150 \]

### Final Answer
Thus, \( 40\% \text{ of } 150 + 60\% \text{ of } 150 = 150 \).
