Find the percent using the percent proportion.
330 meals is what percent of 1320 meals?
To find the percentage, you can set up a proportion where you compare the part (330 meals) over the total (1320 meals) with x percent over 100%.
Let's use \( x \) to represent the unknown percent.
The proportion looks like this:
\[
\frac{{330}}{{1320}} = \frac{{x}}{{100}}
\]
To find \( x \), you can cross-multiply and solve for \( x \):
\( 330 \times 100 = 1320 \times x \)
\( 33000 = 1320x \)
Now divide both sides by 1320 to solve for \( x \):
\( x = \frac{{33000}}{{1320}} \)
\( x = 25 \)
So, 330 meals is 25 percent of 1320 meals.
