For 20 as a percentage of 40, it is (fairly obviously) 50%, but to get it you do 20 divided by 40, and then multiply the answer by 100. \n\nThus for 25, its 25 divided by 40 times 100 = 62.5

5\n\n400 * .1  = 40 \n 40 * .25 = 10\n 10 * .5 = 5!!

10% is 42.5, u just move the decimal place over.\nmultiply that by 4.5  (4.5*10%=45%)\n4.5*42.5=191.25

One way to find the percentage of a value is to convert the percentage into a number then multiply the value by this number.\nYou convert a percentage into a number by dividing the percentage by 100: x% = x/100.\n\nFor example: find 5% of 200.\n1) Convert the percentage to a number:\n5% = 5/100 = 0.05\n2) Multiply the value by the number:\n200*0.05=10\n\nIn your case,\n1) Convert the percentage to a number:\n91&3/8% = 91.375/100 = 0.91375\n2) Multiply the value by the number:\n1000*0.91375 = 913.75\n\nYou would have $913.75

the question is using £240 as a starting point and asking you to compare something with this starting point.\n\nThe starting point ALWAYS represents 100%  ( in all percentage questions find what they are starting with and make it represent 100%\n\n£240 represents 100%\n\n£84 represents 84 x 100/240%\n\nrepresents 840/24%\n\n35%\n\n£84 is 35% of £240

take 35-3, which is 32.  then divide 32 by 35.  you'll get a decimal answer,  move the decimal to the right 2 spaces and that's your percent

Seems you should've reread your question before posting :)\n\nIf 25% of A is 6, A is equal to 24. Why? \n\n25% is one forth, cause the whole A is 100% and 100=4*25. Thus \n1/4 * A = 6. A = 6*4 = 24.\n\nBut probably I got your question wrong... Sorry in that case!

To convert a percent to a decimal all you do is move the decimal point two places to the left. For example:\n15%=.15\n(the decimal point was at the end of 15 and it was moved 2 places to the left)\n\n1.)27%=0.27\n2.)70%=0.70 \n3.)6%=0.06\n 4.)1%=0.01\n 5.) 18.5%=0.185\n 6.)2.2%=0.022\n 7.)15 1/2%=15.5%=0.155\n8.)30 1/4%=30.25%=0.3025

Directions: Turn the following to percents.\n#1   10%\n\n#2   50%\n\n#3   60%\n\n#4   17%\n\n#5   75%\n\n#6   20%\n\n#7   30%\n\n#8   24%\n\n#9   12.5%\n\n#10   50%\n\n#11   225%\n\n#12   40%\n\n#13   25%\n\n#14   175%\n\n#15   40%\n\n#16   65%\n\n#17   .1%\n\n#18   125%

10 - 15% = 8.5\n\nor\n\n10 - (10*0.15) = 8.5\n\nturn % to decimal and multiply it by the number from which you are subtracting the percent. Then subtract that number from the original number\n\nremember each percent is 2 decimal places left - 8% = 0.08, 25% = 0.25, 125% = 1.25

Forty.\nCross multiply/divide  \n5/8=25/x\nmultiply both sides by x and both sides by 8\nyou get\n5x=25 times 8\n\nx = (25x8)/5  or x=25/5 x 8 or x = 5 x 8

.47\n\n47/100 \n\nSo that you understand it, everytime you want to change a percentage to decimal, you take out the % and divide it between 100\n\nFor decimals, you take out the % and write the number you have above (here/100) 100\n\nHope it helps, have a nice day

0.90 is the same as 90%\n1.00 is 100%\n0.25 is 25%\nand so on.

200 X 35 /100 = 70 That is 200 times the percentage in this case 35 then divide by 100 = 70. To divide by 10 remove one 0, to divide by 100 remove two 0's, etc. Can't explain it simpler than that. lol

Going from percent to fraction is easy.  Percent literally means "per 100" so just divide your percent by 100 to get a fraction.  For example, 16% = 16/100.  You can then simplify if you want, to get 16/100= 4/25.\n\n~ ~ ~ ~ \n\n66 2/3% = 0.66666.... or 0.6 (with a dash on top of the 6).  The fraction is 2/3.\n\nTo go from a repeating decimal to a fraction, it's a little tricky. Here's how you do it:  Notice how many numbers are in the repeating pattern -- in this case it's only the 6, so we have 1 repeating number.  Use this "1" to tell you that you need to multiply your decimal by 10^1 to solve.  (If our repeating decimal was 0.181818... that would be two repeating numbers and we'd need to use 10^2 to solve.)  Anyhoo, we have 1 repeating number, so take your decimal, call it x and take 10^1 times x minus x to solve:\n\n10x - x = 6.666... - 0.6666\n9x = 6\nx = 6/9 = 2/3\n\nAnd that's how you go from repeating decimals to a fraction!\n\n~ ~ ~ ~ \n\n18/15 = 120% = 1.20\n\n~ ♥ ~

9/40 as a decimal is .225 (9 divided by 40); to make it a percentage, move the decimal point 2 spots to the right = 22.5%\n\n16 out of 23 is 16 divided by 23 or 69.6% when you round it up from 69.56521%\n\nHope this helps!

1.) Find 50% of 20: 50/100 x 20 = y\n2.) What percent of 20 is 10?: y/100 x 20=10\n3.) The original price was 100, it is now 50. By how much was it discounted? 100 - y/100 x 100 = 50\n4.)The original price was 100 and it was discounted by 10%. What is the new price?: 100-90/100=y
