Unit Rate and Percents

You can use the equation whole * percent to find the answer.

This could be written 0.3 * 52

We can multiply 126 times 4 and then we have two total decimal places

We can set up a ratio table where 150 is the whole or we can use an equation 0.4 * 150

Our ratios for %'s are always part : whole ratios so our fraction or equation will be part over whole

Since Randall has driven 112%, his miles cannot be the whole (which would have to equal 100%)

We could set up a ratio table with miles and %. Our ratio would be 108.9 miles to 225%. Then we scale our 225% to 100% (ex. divide both sides by 9, then multiply both by 4).

You can move the decimal two place values to the right

Percent means "out of 100" so the fraction should be over 100
