If you want to find x percent of a number y then you need to calculate y*(x/100). It makes no difference whether y is a whole number or not.
To find a percentage in a whole number, multiply the number by 100%, or put two zeroes and a percent sign after the number.
a as a percentage of b = 100a/b
The answer depends on the percentage. In many real-life cases they are proper fractions and therefore cannot be converted to whole numbers.
Multiply the number you want a percentage from by the number of the percentage with a decimal point in front ( 100 x .6 = 60% or 100 x .06 =6%) To find out what percentage a certain number is of another number divide it by that number. (70 / 100 = .7 or 70% or 100/ 70 is 1.42 or about 140%)
Take the number you have out of the whole, then dived it by the whole number. Multiply the resulting number by 100 and that's your percent.Example:What percentage is 7 of 10?7 / 10= .7.7 x 100 = 707 is 70% of 10.
You take your percentage and divide it by 100 then times it by your whole number or what you are trying to find the percent of
To find a percentage in a whole number, multiply the number by 100%, or put two zeroes and a percent sign after the number.
You find the percentage equivalent and the round the result to the nearest whole number.
To find out what percentage of a number a certain number is, divide it by x/100. In this instance, 63 / (70/100) = 90.This is the opposite of what you would do if you were given the total, and told to find a certain percentage.

====== Answer 1: ----------- proportion... A portion of the total is to its percentage of the total as the total is to 100%.
You have to carry out the multiplication and thentruncate the answer to find the lower whole number,add 1 to that to find the next whole number.
10 divided by 60 multiplied by 100 is 16.666 (continuous)So, the answer is 16.7%, or 17% if rounding to a whole number.
a number increase from 500 to 625 find the percentage increase
