Bethany sent #9# text messages to her best friend.

Explanation:

You can convert the words of this word problem to a mathematical expression.

We have #60# text messages. #15%# of #60# messages were sent to her best friend.

Since 'of' implies multiplication, we can multiply #60# by #15%#, or #60 times .15#

#60times.15=9#, so she sent #9# texts to her best friend.
