Question

6.81 is what percent of 45.4?

Answer 1

To find percentage, you put the smaller amount, the part, over the entire amount, the total:
part 6.81
total 45.4
Divide, and multiple what you get by 100 to get the percentage. What did you get? I'll post what I got.

Answer 2

I got 0.15

Answer 3

So it would be 15 when multiplied by 100

Answer 4

Correct!

Answer 5

Exactly, rather.

Answer 6

That process, part/total, is always the way you're suppose to get percentages. It changes only if you want to know how much the price increased by, but I don't think you need to worry about that till later. But if you do get it, and need help with it, or anything for that matter, feel free to ask.
