PERCENTS
What
Is
a
Percent?
•
The
term
percent
refers
to
a
fraction
in
which
the
denominator
is
100.
It
is
a
way
to
compare
a
number
with
100.
•
Since
a
dollar
is
equal
to
100
cents,
a
quarter
of
a
dollar
is
equal
to
¼
of
the
dollar.
If
we
change
the
denominator
in
¼
to
100,
the
numerator
becomes
25,
so
a
quarter
is
25/100
of
a
dollar
or
25
cents.

60%
is

“60
percent”
and
represents
60
out
of
100.

75%
is

“75
percent”
and
represents
75
out
of
100

Percents
can
be
written
as
fractions,
decimals
or
numbers
with
the
percent
sign:
55/100
=
55%
=

How
to
determine
a
percent:
•
The
percent
of
a
set
or
value
is
calculated
by
multiplying
the
value
by
the
decimal
form
of
the
percent.
45%
=
.45
76%
=
.76
32%
=
.32,
etc.
•
Example:
If
you
want
to
know
60
percent
of
70,
change
60%
to
.60
and
multiply
times
70,
as
in:
.60
X
70
=
42.
This
means
if
there
were
originally
70
pencils
in
a
box
and
60%
of
them
were
used,
42
pencils
are
no
longer
in
the
box.
55%
of
146
=
.55
X
146
=
80.30
27
%
of
67
=
.27
X
67
=
18.09
•
Fractions,
percents,
and
decimals
are
connected.
They
all
represent
parts
of
a
whole.
Each
one
has
its
own
format,
but
indicates
a
portion
or
part
of
a
larger
value.
When
solving
problems,
you
must
decide
which
form
is
the
most
suitable
for
calculating
the
answer.
