Enrichment Ch.2: Percent of a Number

YOU CAN USE THE CALCULATOR:
* Change the percent to a decimal and multiply with the other number. (50% of 12 = .5 x 12)
**When solving a problem with a percent greater than 100%, the part will be greater than the whole. **
(150% of 90) **
150% = 150/100: 150 is the part, 100 is the whole
150/100 * n/90; n is the part, 90 is the whole
