This can be done at least 2 ways.
Soln 1: The saying: IS over OF equals PERCENT over 100, tells how to set up a proportion to solve.
5/28 = x/100 ... cross multiply and solve for x
28x = 500
x = 17.86%
Soln 2: Translate the word problem into an equation. IS means equals, OF means to multiply.
x (28) = 5 solve, get a decimal answer and convert it to a percent.
x = 5/28 = 0.1786 = 17.86%
Pick which method you like best to use.

Expressed as a percentage, 5/28 x 100 = 17.857142 recurring (that is, 17.857142857142...) percent.
70% out of 28 = 70% * 28 = 0.7 * 28 = 19.6
5.6 = 28/5 = 560%
5% of 28.00 is 1.40 Add them together. Or multiply 28 by 1.05
% rate:= (28/560) x 100%= 0.05 x 100%= 5%
28 percent of 80 percent is 22.4 percent.
50% is equivalent to 1/2, thus, 1/2(28) (multiply the value and the percent to get the end value) = 14. Or, simply multiply .5(28) = 14. Both are the same thing.
10/36 = 5/18 = 0.277 = 28%
28 percent is 0.28
