Percent means " from 100 " or "of 100", and represents a part of an entire whole (i.e. 100%).
Example : 10% would indicate 10 items or parts out of each 100,
equal to the fraction 10/100. Fractionally this is the same as 1/10 (one tenth).
To find a percentage
Divide to express a fraction as a decimal, and multiply by 100.
Example : To find 5/8 as a percentage, divide 5 by 8, giving you .625, then multiply by 100 to yield 62.5 -- the fraction 5/8 is the same value as 62.5%
Example : Out of 25 objects, 7 objects represents how many percent of the total?
Divide 7 by 25 which is .28, multiply by 100 to find that 7/25 equals 28% of the total.
