Electronic calculator, slide rule, log tables, etc., in places where such use is permitted. Not in school examinations, where manual calculations have been asked for.

25!\n\n25%=.25\n\n100*.25 (move the decimal point two places to the right) =25\n\nThanks for the 25% of 8 points.

Well this is easy, what you have to do is put in the values as follows:\n\nA1 = 10000\nA2 = =(A1*0.25)+A1\nA3 to A5 jus drag the column in A2, this will compute the percentage of each column just above the column with the formula, and give the result you want.\n\nI hope this is the solution u were looking at.\n\nRegards\nChris

in order to figure this out, you first have to find the decimal of the numbers. to do this follow these steps:\n\n1-divide the numerator by the denomintaor, therefore, recieving the decimal\n\n3 divided by 8= 0.375\n\nyou have to round the number if it has more than two decimal places \n\n0.375=0.38\n\nthen, you multiply the decimal you got by 100, then you get your percent\n\n0.38 x 100 = 38\n\n38=38 %\n\nhope you understand good luck :)

.47\n\n47/100 \n\nSo that you understand it, everytime you want to change a percentage to decimal, you take out the % and divide it between 100\n\nFor decimals, you take out the % and write the number you have above (here/100) 100\n\nHope it helps, have a nice day

You multiply [85/100] X 100 --> 85 %\n\nPercent and Percentage are the same in meaning but fall under different contexts. It's the way we apply it. Say for example; the PERCENTAGE of dog pet owners in a Region X is 78 %, and so on.

To turn any fraction into a percentage, divide the numerator (the top number) by the denominator (the bottom number) and then multiply the results by 100.\n\nExample 1/8 = 1 divided by 8 = .125 multiplied by 100 = 12.5%\nmore examples:\n\n1/4 = 1 divided by 4 = .25 multiplied by 100 = 25%\n3/8 = 3 divided by 8 = .375 multiplied by 100 = 37.5%\n5/16 = 5 divided by 16 = .3125 multiplied by 100 = 31.25%\n\nHope that helps

% means divided by 100 so you just move the decimal 2 places to the left & drop the % sign\n7.8%=.078

6 % for the first one\n85% for the second\n\nto get that, you divide the numerator by the denominator to get the decimal.  Than you move the decimal two places over to get the percentage.

Divide it using decimals then multply the decimal by 100 and that will be your percent\n\nIs it just me or did someone else use this same exact answer below.  seriously people use your own imaginations and brains.

multiply the percent by the whole number\n\n10% * 47= 4.7

10 - 15% = 8.5\n\nor\n\n10 - (10*0.15) = 8.5\n\nturn % to decimal and multiply it by the number from which you are subtracting the percent. Then subtract that number from the original number\n\nremember each percent is 2 decimal places left - 8% = 0.08, 25% = 0.25, 125% = 1.25

Simply multiply by 100.\n\nThe reason for this is simple.  We interpret percent as 1/100 so if we want to convert a fraction a/b to percent we have the following:\n\nc % = a/b ==> c * 1/100 = a/b ==> c = 100 * (a/b)\n\nYou may also want to convert a/b to decimal.  Although this is not essential.

To calculate percentage:\n\nDivide the part by the whole.  10 cats out of  100 cats is equal to 10 divided by 100 or .10. You then you multiple by 100 to get the percentage.   .10 times 100 equals 10 percent.\n\nIf you know the percentage:\n\nDivide by 100 and then multiple the whole by the resulting number to get the portion. 10 percent of 100 cats equals 10 divided by 100 times 100. 10 divided by 100 equals .10 now .10 times 100 equals 10 or 10 cats out of 100 cats.
