How do you find the percent of a whole number (give an example and explain it)?

It's simple, just divide the smaller by the larger number. If you wanted to find, let's say, 25 out of 75 as a percent, you would just do this.

Step-by-step explanation:

25 ÷ 75 = 0.3333

0.3333 x 100 = 33.33

Or 33.33%

Another example

12 ÷ 50 = 0.24

0.24 x 100 = 24

Or 24%

Hope this helps!

To determine the percent of a number do the following steps:

Multiply the number by the percent

Divide the answer by 100

Round to the desired precision if necessary

Step-by-step explanation:

Ex.

Want to find 75% of 256

256*75=19200

19200 ÷ 100 =192
