I want to know how do find a percent of something, just in general-the formula or whatever, and how to make something into a fraction.



Percent= piece/whole * 100

So...something like 439 divided by 612x100? (That's not the actual problem, though)

yes that is it.

Example: what percent is 25 of 45?

25/45 * 100= 56 percent

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

Percent = (Part / Whole) * 100

First, identify the part and the whole in the problem. The part refers to the specific quantity you want to find the percent of, while the whole represents the entire amount or quantity.

For example, let's say you want to find out what percent 25 is of 45. In this case, 25 is the part and 45 is the whole.

To calculate the percent, divide the part by the whole, and then multiply the result by 100 to convert it into a percentage. The formula becomes:

Percent = (25 / 45) * 100

Simplifying this equation gives you:

Percent = 0.5556 * 100

Therefore, 25 is approximately 55.56% of 45.

To convert a decimal or fraction into a percent, you just need to multiply it by 100. For example, if you have the fraction 3/4, you can convert it to a percent by multiplying it by 100:

(3/4) * 100 = 75%

So, 3/4 is equal to 75%.
