Question 1
Calculate 
Explanation: In order to solve this problem, we need to understand the relationship between percentages and ratios. Percents can be written as a value over a whole. In this case , our whole is one-hundred percent; therefore, we can write the following:
Now, we need to create a relationship between our known value and the number we need to calculate. In the problem, we know that ore whole number is 
and we need to calculate 
of this number. We will name this variable, 
. Using this information we need to construct a proportion. We can write the following proportion:
We can cross multiply and solve for the unknown variable.
Rewrite.
Simplify.
Divide both sides of the equation by 
.
Solve.
