What is the mathematical definition of the word percent?
expressed in hundredths, used to expressed a proportion of an amount in hundredths, represented by a symbol percent
What is the type of percent that compares the inaccuracy of an estimate to the actual amount?
Error
How do you translate a percent into a proportion?
Take the amount shown by the percentage as the left number in the proportion. 100 minus that amount is the right number in the proportion. This can then be simplified by identifying any common factors in the two numbers. For instance 40% would be written down as 40:60. This could then be simplified to 2:3.
What is meant by proportion of ingredients?
"proportion" means how much of one ingredient as compared to other ingredients. For instance the proportion of fat to flour in shortcrust pastry is twice the amount of flour to the amount of fat used.

Find the critical Zc that corresponds to a 98 confidence level?
The 98 percent confidence level is commonly used in statistical tests. The critical Zc refers to the amount of relation between to factors.
What country depends on nuclear energy?
Many countries have a sizeable amount of nuclear produced electricity, perhaps France has the largest proportion at around 80 percent

How do you write this in a proportion 75 is 300 percent of what number?
300% of an amount means 3 times the original amount. This is because a percentage is a proportion per 100. So 300% means 300 per 100 or 300/100 times the amount.(Note: not to be confused with a 300% increase).Therefore if we divide 75 by 3 we get: 75/3 = 25.Thus 75 is 300% of 25.
How much nuclear energy do people need to import to match their needs?
Nuclear energy supplies a proportion of electricity used, in the US this is about 19 percent, so a consumer imports that proportion of nuclear energy. The actual amount clearly depends on how much electricity that consumer uses.
