a 2,000 calorie per day diet. Find decimal and fractional notation for the percent notation

A) 1 OUNCE of Tostitos provides 9% of the MDV of Fat.

C)1/2 cup of Campbells New England clam chowder provides 6% of the MDV of iron. Can someone tell me where to begin.

YOu are given the percents. Convert it to decimal percent, and fractions.

example: 14% converts to .14 and 14/100

A percent sign means the parts of 100. So --
9% = 0.09 = 9/100

What do you think the notations are for 6%?

  0.06= 6/100

      How would you turn a fraction into a percent example 1 1/3. would it be 1x3=3+1=4 = 0.04%

        Identify the rate, base, and amount in each statement or question. Do not solve the exercise at this point.
