OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

so, where are you confused?

OpenStudy (mind2000):

medals to best answer and I don;t know what to do with the whole thing.

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

so, here you are, in your frontyard, inflating your hotair balloon

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

is not fullyinflated, as you can see in the picture

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

so you have a partially inflated balloon that is, only a percentage of what it can take of hotair, has been put into it

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

$$ n\% \ \ of \ \ m = \cfrac{n}{100}m $$

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

100% of something, is well, 100%, or the full amount it can possibly take

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

so, say, on the picture, that balloon is say 25% of all hotair it can take how much more would you need to get it fully inflated?

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

that is, the balloon is 25% inflated, or it has 25% of the hotair it can take
