Best Answer

if you do an equation to solve this problem here is the equation way:

equation:

steps:

what= x (because you don't know what what is)

is= equal

17%=0.17

of=multiply

65=65

so it comes out to be:

x=0.17(65)

Ans: 11.05

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

if you want to do it the proportion way here it is:

proportion:

it's always

is part = x

of whole 100

so it's

17

100

it's 17/100 because 17% (percents are over 100, always)

and

x

65

note: it's usually always 100x so like x100 when you multiply the proportion.

so here's how it looks

17 x

--- = ----

100 65

so you get

100x 1105

------- ------

100 100

100x/100= x

1105/100= 11.05

same answer for both you can do it either way (proportion or equation)

remember the tips and notes above!!!
