      All of the above.

    Correct Answer
    F. All of the above.
    Explanation
    The explanation for the correct answer "All of the above" is that all three options mentioned in the answer are valid methods to find 15% of $72.00.

    Option A suggests converting 15% to the decimal .15 and multiplying it with $72.00, which gives the result $10.80.

    Option B breaks down 15% into 10% and 5%. It calculates 10% of $72.00 as $7.20 and then adds half of 10% (which is 5%) of $72.00, resulting in $10.80.

    Option C suggests finding 1% of $72.00, which is $0.72, and then multiplying it by 15, giving the same result of $10.80.

    Therefore, all three methods yield the correct answer of $10.80, making "All of the above" the correct choice.
