Solve each proportion. 2. Convert 24% to a decimal 3. Morgan organized a fundraiser that required students to earn money for running miles around the track on a Saturday. The histogram above shows the number of students who ran various intervals of miles. a)How many students ran in the fundraiser? b)Which mile range represents the largest group? c)Find the probability that a randomly chosen student from the fundraiser ran at least 5 miles but less than 10 miles miles Number of Students

ALL % problems can be solved with proportions  a Ratio is … ◦ a Fraction  a Proportion is … ◦ 2 = fractions  % means … ◦ Out of 100, per 100, over 100  Write 57% as a Ratio …  If you got 39 out of 55 on a test, ◦ What part did you get right? ◦ What was the whole test worth?  Make a Ratio out of your score…  What % did you get? Part Whole =

 Solve this proportion…  Write this down !!! OR

What is 24 % of 75 ?  Write the proportion.  Solve x = 18  Check: Example = ?24 75

31 is 62 % of what number?  Write the proportion.  Solve. x = 50  Check: Example 2

What percent of 40 is 18?  Write the proportion.  Solve. ◦ x = 45  Check: Example 3 45% = 0.45

In 2006, people over the age of 65 made up 13% of the population in Oregon. The total population in Oregon in 2006 was approximately 3,700,000. Find the number of people over 65.  Write the percent as a fraction.  Write a proportion.  Use cross products to solve. 100x = 48,100,000 x = 481,000  There were approximately 481,000 people over 65. Example 4 Total always goes on the bottom !!!
