Answer:

5%

Step-by-step explanation:

12 divided by 240 is 0.05, which is a PERCENTAGE FRACTION (as I like to call it).

This means that you can easily make this into a percentage.

Example Percentage Fractions:

A whole number, like 1 for example, is 100% or more.

The number 1 is 100%, and 2 is 200% and 4.25 is 425%

But since 12 divided by 240, in this problem, is 0.05, it is 5%.

Example are:

0.08 is 8%

0.02 is 2%

0.43 is 43%

0.79 is 79%

It's pretty simple.

Sorry if this isn't very good, I'm not a good teacher XD

Hope this helps :D
