First, write 64% as a decimal. Just move the decimal point of 64% two digits to the left and then eliminate the % so that we get 0.64. Thus, 64%=0.64. Then multiply that 0.64 by 86

So 55 is 64% of 86.

The answer is:

To find a part of the whole number, you multiply the percentage in decimal form against the whole number. The first step is to convert the percentage into a decimal, to . Then multiply the decimal against the whole number, .

As of the middle of August, Magnus had saved of his total travel budget. If Magnus has a goal of saving , how much does he have left to save?

There are two ways to go about doing this, and both of them require you to look for what is actually being asked. The question asks you for how much he has left to save. This means that we are not looking for , we are looking for of the savings goal. So, the simpler way to solve this is to do the following:

Note, we also could have found of and then subtracted that from . Using this method would have yielded the exact same answer as the other method.
