it would not be that
Sock:
ok so here is how I would figure it out
men:
Given that Andrew bought 16 pears. he ate 4 pears
We are to find the percentage of pears that Andrew ate
Sock:
do 16 / 4
Alfagg:

ok so think of it this way if your having trouble with the division, what times 4 will give you 16
Sock:
to put it in even more simpler terms just count up by 4's until you get to sixteen then count how many 4's it took to get there
Alfagg:
how many times does 4 go into 16?
Sock:
yes
Alfagg:
4 times

good now multiply 4 by each percentage until one of the answers is 100
Sock:
and whichever one that is, that's your answer
Sock:
so what would 4 x 25 = ?
Knockout3000:
25%
Alfagg:
25%
