Question

How do you calculate percentage or find the per cent value

Answer 1

Divide the number you want to find the percentage for by the total amount of items in that group. Then, multiply that value by 100.

Explanation:

Ex. There are 3 boys in a group of 4. What percentage of the group are boys?

`(3)/(4) =0.75`

`0.75*100=75`

75% of the group are boys
