Divide the amount given as a percent of a whole by the percent, converted to a decimal by multiplying the percent by 0.01 (exact). The value of the whole will be the quotient. In symbols, when w is the unknown whole, k is a known percent of the whole, and the percent p itself is known, w = k/(0.01)p or 100 (k/p).
