It's not hard if remember a couple of things that you should have learned \before you ran into this problem.  Here they are:

1).  ' 10% ' means  10/100 , or  0.1

2).  In middle school math,"of" almost always means "times".

Now that you know those two things, you can use them to re-write the problem:

" 10%  of  120 "  means  " 0.1  times  120 ".

I'm sue you can solve that.
