Well, first you need to find out what the 100% number is. To do that you divide 85 by 5 (the lowest common denominator between 85% & 100%) and you get 17. Now you divide 136 by 17 and you get 8. Then, to get the 100% number, you multiply the 8 by 20 (because 20 times 5 (the lowest common denominator) is 100%) and you get 160, your answer. As a double check, calculate 15% of 160 and you get 24, the difference between 136 (85%) and 160 (100%).
136 - 136x = 85 136-85 = 136x 51/136 = x = 0.375 multiply x by 100 to get percent change = 37.5%
To find a percentage you need to firstly divide the number (120) by 100. 120 / 100 = 1.2 Then you need to times this number by the percent needed (85). 1.2 x 85 = 102 Therefore 85% of 120 is 102.
25% of 85 equals 85*0.25 or 85/4. The answer is 21.25.
To find 85 percent of a number, multiply the number by 0.85. In this instance, 0.85 x 2000 = 1700. Therefore, 85 percent of 2000 is equal to 1700.
To find 85 percent of a number, multiply the number by 0.85. In this instance, 0.85 x 8 = 6.8. Therefore, 85 percent of 8 is equal to 6.8.
The number 160
136 - 136x = 85 136-85 = 136x 51/136 = x = 0.375 multiply x by 100 to get percent change = 37.5%
136
37.5% decrease.
The number 160
Original Price x .85 = 136 Original price = 136/.85 (If you are allowed to use a calculator, you are done here.) IF not, factor and cancel... 136X100/85 = 2x2x2x17x2x2x5x5/17x5 = 2x2x2x2x2x5 = 32 x 5 = 160 160

To find 85 percent of a number, multiply the number by 0.85. In this instance, 0.85 x 360 = 306. Therefore, 85 percent of 860 is equal to 306.
To find 85 percent of a number, multiply the number by 0.85. In this instance, 0.85 x 276 = 234.6. Therefore, 85 percent of 276 is equal to 234.6.
To find 85 percent of a number, multiply the number by 0.85. In this instance, 0.85 x 61.0177 = 51.865045. Therefore, 85 percent of 61.0177 is equal to 51.865045.
