Answer:
Percent Value: 85%
Number: 78
85% of 78...
... is equivalent to multiplying them:
85% × 78 = 66.3
Step-by-step explanation:
Introduction:
'Percent (%)' means 'out of one hundred':
85% = 85 'out of one hundred',
p% is read p 'percent',
85% = 85/100 = 85 ÷ 100
Calculate percentage:
85% × 78 =
85/100 × 78 =
(85 ÷ 100) × 78 =
85 × 78 ÷ 100 =
6,630 ÷ 100 =
66.3
Proof.
How do we check the result?
If 85% × 78 = 66.3 =>
Divide 66.3 by 78...
... And see if we get as a result: 85%
Note:
100/100 = 100 ÷ 100 = 100% = 1
Multiply a number by the fraction 100/100,
... and its value doesn't change.
n/100 = n%, any number.
Calculate the percent value:
66.3 ÷ 78 =
0.85 =
0.85 × 100/100 =
(0.85 × 100)/100 =
85/100 =
85%
So we have proven that the calculations are correct.
