To find this out, the first step would be to turn the percent into a decimal:

15% -----> .15 (Divide by 100)

Then multiply the number by .15:

60 x .15 = 9 

So 15% of 60 is 9.

Hope this helps!
15% of 60  is calculated by converting 15% into the decimal fraction 0.15 and then mult. 60 by this 0.15:  9.

15% of 60 is 9.

Note that 10% of 60 is 6; 20% of 60 is 12; so 15% of 60 is 9 and this makes sense.
