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!!!
