Because 100% = 1.
Take the old value and subtract from the new value, then divide by the old value. Multiply by 100. That number representsthe percent change.
The Identity Property of Multiplication means multiplying a number by 1 will equal that number. The value will not change.
To multiply 6.5 percent without the percent sign, you can divide the percent value by 100. Therefore, multiplying 6.5 percent is the same as multiplying 0.065.

Multiplying a number by 3 1/2 does not necessarily increase its value so the question is based on nonsense.
multiplying by zero
Take the old value and subtract from the new value, then divide by the old value. Multiply by 100. That number representsthe percent change.
In terms of 'y' the answer is 0.16y Once you know the value of 'y' then you can find the answer by multiplying the value of y by 16 and then dividing the answer by 100.
To multiply 6.5 percent without the percent sign, you can divide the percent value by 100. Therefore, multiplying 6.5 percent is the same as multiplying 0.065.

To find the answer to this, first divide 420 by 350, which is 1.2. Get the percent value of this by multiplying 1.2 by 100, so the percent value must be 120%. Since we are looking for percent change, subtract 100 from that to get 20%. The answer is "350 changes 20% to become 420", or "420 is 20% more than 350".
You can times the number by 100 and get your answer
Multiplying a number by 3 1/2 does not necessarily increase its value so the question is based on nonsense.
Step 1: Take the old value and subtract it from the new value, then divide by the old value. Step 2: Multiply by 100. That number represents the percent change.
You have an original value and a new value. Take the new value and subtract the original value. Then divide that number by the original value.
By multiplying the numerator and the denominator by the same number. You can change 1/2 to 2/4 by multiplying 1/2 by 2/2. Since 2/2 equals 1, you're not changing the value of the fraction.
