What are the characteristics of a percent?
a part of a whole
How do you find the percent equivalent to the nearest whole percent?
You find the percentage equivalent and the round the result to the nearest whole number.
When you already have a percent of the whole number how do you find out what that whole number is?
When expressing a math problem in words, the word "of" almost always means "multiply". Say that you know that 1199.91 is [equals] 23 percent of a number. The right side of the obvious equation is .23(a number), or .23x. 1199.91 equals .23x and all you have to do is divide both sides by .23 to find your answer. 1199.91/.23 is equal to 5217. If you have the part and the percent but you need to find the whole then this is the equation....for example 11 is 80% of_____? to figure it out you use this part over whole =percent over 100.... P =part, w=whole, and percent=x it looks like p x _ = _ w 100 The anser to my example one is W=13.75
How can you find the opposite of a percent of a whole?
I'm not sure
How do you get a percent to whole number?
The percent is a way of expressing he relationship between part and the whole, where whole is defined as 100%. A percent can be defined by a fraction with a denominator of 100. Decimals can also represent a percent. For instance, 56/100 = 0.56 = 56%
