Percentage Practice Problems - Calculate Parts of a Whole

In order to calculate 15% of 100, start by converting the percentage into a decimal. Convert 15% to a decimal: $95\% = 0.95$

Then multiply the decimal by 100 to find the percentage value: $0.95 \times 100 = 95$

So, 95% of 100 is $95$.

In order to calculate 75% of 100, we must first convert the percent into a decimal. Convert 75% to a decimal: $75\% = 0.75$.

Then multiply by the whole number: $0.75 \times 100 = 75$.

Therefore, 75% of 100 is $75$.

In order to determine 20% of 100, we begin by converting the percentage into a decimal and then proceed to multiply by the whole number. First, convert 20% to a decimal: $20\% = 0.2$

Next, multiply this decimal by 100 to find the percentage of the whole number: $0.2 \times 100 = 20$

Thus, 20% of 100 is $20$.

In order to determine 50% of 100, we first convert the percentage into a decimal. Convert 50% to a decimal: $50\% = 0.5$.

Next, multiply the decimal by 100 to get the percentage value: $0.5 \times 100 = 50$.

Therefore, 50% of 100 is $50$.

In order to determine the percentage of 75 out of 100, apply the percentage formula:

$\text{Percentage} = \frac{\text{Part}}{\text{Whole}} \times 100$

Substitute the specific values:

$\text{Percentage} = \frac{75}{100} \times 100$

The equation simplifies to:

$\text{Percentage} = 75\%$

Therefore, 75 out of 100 is equivalent to 75%.
