How to solve for Percent

  • There are 42 students in Master Roshi's class

  • 16 of the students are from Goku's home planet Vegeta

  • What percent is from Planet Vegeta?

  • Remember:

     partwhole = %100 = isof\frac{part}{whole}\ =\ \frac{\%}{100}\ =\ \frac{is}{of}

How to solve for the Part

  •  Izuku Midoriya and Katsuki Bakugo have to save at least 96% of the classes at U.A. High School from Tomura Shigaraki .

  • There are 38 total classes in the school

  • How many classes must they save?

  •  %100 = PartWhole = isof\frac{\%}{100}\ =\ \frac{Part}{Whole}\ =\ \frac{is}{of}

How to find the Whole

  • Tanjiro and his demon sister Nezuko managed to get rid of 78% of all demons in Japan for the Demon Slayer Corps.

  • Together, they have beheaded 350 Demons.

  • How many demons do they have to decapitate altogether?

  •  partwhole = %100 = isof\frac{part}{whole}\ =\ \frac{\%}{100}\ =\ \frac{is}{of}

Fill in the Blank

What answer did you get?


HINT: There are 800 people total. We want to find 4%. So what is 4% of 800?

10

Lets solve this!

  • 4% is equal to

     4100\frac{4}{100}  

  • 800 is our total or whole

  •  4100 =  x800\frac{4}{100}\ =\ \ \frac{x}{800}  

  • Cross Multiply

  • x = 32

  • Out of 800 applicants, only 32 became hunters

You don't have to use the Proportion way

  • The other method would work for this too

  •  4100 of 800 = 4100 x 800\frac{4}{100}\ of\ 800\ =\ \frac{4}{100}\ x\ 800  

  • In the calculator you enter 4÷100 = .044\div100\ =\ .04  then  .04 x 800 = 32.04\ x\ 800\ =\ 32

Multiple Choice

Over one hundred years ago, humanity was driven to the brink of extinction after the emergence of humanoid giants called Titans. The titans devour humans on sight. Inside one wall, there are 90 people. Of that 90, there are 80% that have lost their entire family to Titans. How many people have experienced loss of family members?

In other words, What is 80% of 90?

I know.. some of you aren't IN LOVE WITH PROPORTIONS! So here is the other way:

Change 5% into a fraction

 5% = 51005\%\ =\ \frac{5}{100}  
Then Multiply it by the amount we know
 5100 of 700 is 5100 x 700\frac{5}{100}\ of\ 700\ is\ \frac{5}{100}\ x\ 700  
In your calculator you divide 5 by 100 then multiply by 700
 5÷100 = .05 then .05 x 700 = 325\div100\ =\ .05\ then\ .05\ x\ 700\ =\ 32
