Question 14344
There are two ways of getting an answer. 
1. Decimal
You can change 48% into .48 because a % sign means multiplied by 100
Then multiply .48 with 150. 
{{{.48*150=72}}}
2. Fraction
You can change 48% into {{{48/100}}}
That reduces to {{{24/50}}}which in turn reduces to {{{12/25}}}
Then multiply {{{12/25}}} with 150
{{{12/25*150=72}}}
You can use either way to solve this problem. It depends on whether you are more comfortable using decimals or fractions. 
Hope this helps!
