To do this problem, you set up a proportion: 50 percent of 100 is equal to what (x) percent of 70? It should look like this:
50/100 = x/70
To solve this problem, divide 50 by 100:
.5 = x/70
To finish the equation, times both sides by 70:
(.5)(70) = (70)(x/70) [The x70 and /70 cancel each other out]
35 = x
So, 50% of 70 is 35.
