C. 100.8
D. 9

Answer :

Let's match each percentage calculation with the correct answer from the options given. We will solve each calculation step-by-step:

  1. 18% of 560:
    To find 18% of 560, you multiply 560 by 0.18:
    [tex]560 \times 0.18 = 100.8[/tex]
    Therefore, 18% of 560 is 100.8.

  2. 82% of 400:
    To find 82% of 400, you multiply 400 by 0.82:
    [tex]400 \times 0.82 = 328[/tex]
    Therefore, 82% of 400 is 328.

  3. 17% of 480:
    To find 17% of 480, you multiply 480 by 0.17:
    [tex]480 \times 0.17 = 81.6[/tex]
    Therefore, 17% of 480 is 81.6.

  4. 5% of 180:
    To find 5% of 180, you multiply 180 by 0.05:
    [tex]180 \times 0.05 = 9[/tex]
    Therefore, 5% of 180 is 9, but this does not match any of the provided options, so this seems to be an error in the options provided.

Now, matching the correct answers with the given options:

  1. 18% of 560 = 100.8, which is option 2.
  2. 82% of 400 = 328, which is option 4.
  3. 17% of 480 = 81.6, which is option 1.

So the correct matches are:

  • 18% of 560 = Option 2: 100.8
  • 82% of 400 = Option 4: 328
  • 17% of 480 = Option 1: 81.6

Note: There seems to be a mistake with the 5% of 180 calculation, as the result doesn't match with any option given.
