This depends on the percent (%).
A) If the % is 99.99 or less, then no.
50% of 5 = 5 X .5 = 2.5
75% of 100 = 100 X .75 = 75
B) If the % is 100, then they are equal.
100% of any number is that number X 1.0
100% of 3 = 3 X 1.0 = 3
C) If the % is over 100, the % is greater than the whole number.
125% of 100 = 100 X 1.25 = 125
150% of 3 = 3 X 1.5 = 4.5
275% of 840 = 840 X 2.75 = 2310
