how to find the percent of a number

Answer 1

To find the percent of a number, you can use the following formula:

Percent = (Part/Whole) x 100

1. Identify the number you want to find the percent of (this is the "Part").
2. Identify the total or whole number (this is the "Whole").
3. Divide the Part by the Whole.
4. Multiply the result by 100 to get the percentage.

For example, if you want to find 20% of 50:

Percent = (20/100) x 50
Percent = 0.2 x 50 = 10

So, 20% of 50 is 10.
