\[whole \times decimal = part\] - 2Given a percent and a whole, how do you calculate the part? (II)1. Convert the percent to a fraction.
2. Multiply the whole by the fraction.
\(whole \times \frac{percent}{100} = part\) - 3Given a percent and a whole, how do you calculate the part? (III)Set-up a proportion and solve
\[\frac{?}{whole}=\frac{percent}{100}\] - 4Given a percent and a part, how do you calculate the whole? (I)1. Convert the percent to a decimal.
2. Divide the part by the decimal.
\[part \div decimal = whole\] - 5Given a percent and a part, how do you calculate the whole? (II)1. Convert the percent to a fraction.
2. Divide the part by the fraction.
\[part \div \frac{percent}{100} = whole\] - 6Given a percent and a part, how do you calculate the whole? (III)Set-up a proportion and solve
\[\frac{part}{?}=\frac{percent}{100}\] - 7Given a part and whole, how do you convert to a percent? (I)Divide the part by the whole and convert the decimal to a percent.
\[ (part \div whole) \times 100 \] - 8Given a part and whole, how do you convert to a percent? (II)Set-up a proportion and solve
