That's a little confusing. If you want to find 5 percent of any number, multiply that number by .05 If you're saying that a number has been increased by 5 percent and you want to find the original number, divide the increased number by 1.05 Let's do it with easy numbers. 5 percent of 100 is 5 because 100 x .05 = 5 105 is 5 percent more than 100 because 105 divided by 1.05 = 100
The answer is 1. 5 % is 5/100 So , 20 * (5/100) = (20*5)/100 = 100/100 = 1 By decimals : 5% = 0.05 and 0.05 x 20 = 1
5% of 46 = 46*5/100 = 2.3
(8 / 5) x 100 = 160%
Divide the number by 100 and then multiply the answer by 5. add the number with the answer.

Multiply by 100 to get the percent equivalent of a number: 5 x 100 = 500%
5% of 46 = 46*5/100 = 2.3
(8 / 5) x 100 = 160%
Divide the number by 100 and then multiply the answer by 5. add the number with the answer.
15% is bigger than 5%. 5% of 100 would be the number 5. 15% of 100 would be 15, so it is bigger.
A percent is a number relative to 100. Therefore, we want the number 100 in the ratio. In order to do that, we need to multiply BOTH numbers in the ratio by a number so that the second number of the new ratio is equal to 100. The first number of the new ratio is the percent. For example: 4:5 = [4*20]:[5*20] = 80:100 = 80%
2 x 100 / 5 = 40
To find 5 percent of a number, multiply the number by 0.05. In this instance, 0.05 x 21 = 1.05. Therefore, 5 percent of 21 is equal to 1.05.
x*5% = 5x*0.05 = 5x = 5/0.05x = 100
Divide the number by 100 to get 1%, then times the answer by 5 to get 5%Or, you can divide the number by 20, which will also give you 5%
