2 Solving Arithmetic Problems Involving Percent Types of percent problems -What (number) is m% of n? -m is what percent of n? -m is n% of what (number)? -Percent off -Percent change (increase/decrease) -Tax added

3 What (number) is m% of n? Example 1: What is 20% of 50? Solution: 50(0.20) = 10 Note: Change percent to decimal by moving decimal point two places to the left. Then multiply number by decimal Example 2: What is 35% of 70? Solution: 70(0.35) = 24.5

4 You Try What is 18% of 40? Solution: 40(0.18) = 7.2

5 m is what percent of n? Example 1: 25 is what percent of 90? Solution: 25 ÷ 90 = 0.278 = 27.8% Note: Divide first number by second number. Then change decimal to percent by moving decimal point two places to right. Example 2: 45 is what percent of 110? Solution: 45 ÷ 110 = 0.409 = 40.9%

6 You Try 9 is what percent of 60? Solution: 9 ÷ 60 = 0.15 = 15%

7 m is n% of what (number)? Example 1: 20 is 40% of what number? Solution: 40% = 0.40 20 ÷ 0.40 = 50 Note: Change percent to decimal. Then divide number by decimal. Example 2: 100 is 72% of what number? Solution: 72% = 0.72 100 ÷ 0.72 = 138.9

8 You Try 70 is 60% of what number? Solution: 60% = 0.60 70 ÷ 0.60 = 116.7

9 Solving Basic Percent Problems Algebraically Transferring words to symbols – “What”  x “is”  = “of”  multiply or times “out of”  divide

10 Examples What is 20% of 50? Solution – x = 0.20 * 50 x = 10 So, 10 is 20% of 50.

11 More Examples 25 is what percent of 90? Solution – 25 = x * 90 25/90 = x * 90/90 0.278 = x 27.8% = x So, 25 is 27.8% of 90.

12 More Examples 20 is 40% of what number? Solution – 20 = 0.40 * x 20/0.40 = 0.40/0.40 * x 50 = x

13 Percent Word Problems Solution: Rephrase question – What is 70% of 40? 40(0.70) = 28 So, they need to win 28 games.

14 More Examples Solution: Rephrase question – 56 is what percent of 60? 56 ÷ 60 = 0.933 = 93.3%

15 More Examples Solution: Rephrase question – 65 is 40.6% of what number? 65 ÷ 0.406 ≈ $160.00 So, Alexis received about $160.00 on her birthday.

24 Percent Change Example 1: Find the percent change from 54 feet to 87.7 feet. Solution: 87.7 – 54 = 33.7 33.7 ÷ 54 = 0.624 = 62.4% increase Note: Find the difference between the two values. This number represents the increase or decrease. Divide this number by the first value. Convert decimal to percent.

25 More Examples Example 2: Find the percent change from 61 miles to 47 miles. Solution: 61 -47 = 14 14 ÷ 61 = 0.230 = 23.0% decrease

26 You Try Find the percent change from 57 inches to 83 inches. Solution:

27 You Try Find the percent change from 80m to 28m. Solution:

28 Percent Change Algorithm Percent Change = (big number – small number) / first number Example 1 - Find the percent change from 54 feet to 87.7 feet. Solution – Percent Change = (87.7 – 54) / 54 = 0.624 = 62.4% increase

29 When Given Percent Change Example 1: From 83 tons to x tons with a 71.1% decrease. Find x. Solution: 100% -71.1% = 28.9% = 0.289 83 (0.289) = 23.99 tons = x Note: Subtract the percent decrease from 100%. Convert the difference in percent to decimal and then multiply by first value. If given the second value, then divide.

30 More Examples Example 2: From 3 minutes to x minutes with a 70% increase. Find x. Solution: 100% + 70% = 170% = 1.70 3(1.70) = 5.1 minutes = x Note: Add the percent increase to 100%. Convert the sum of percent to decimal and then multiply by first value. If given the second value, then divide.

31 Solving When Given Percent Change Algebraically Example 1 – Find x. From 83 tons to x tons with 71.1% decrease. Solution – 0.711 = (83 – x) / 83 0.711 * 83 = 83 – x 59.01 = 83 – x 59.01 – 83 = - x -23.99 = - x 23.99 = x

32 More Examples Example 2: From 3 minutes to x minutes with a 70% increase. Find x. Solution – 0.70 = (x – 3) / 3 0.70 * 3 = x – 3 2.1 = x – 3 2.1 + 3 = x 5.1 = x So, from 3 minutes to 5.1 minutes is a 70% increase.

33 You Try 1. From 93.4 hours to x hours with 47.5% decrease. Find x. Solution:

34 You Try 2.From 13 meters to x meters with a 376.9% increase. Find x. Solution:

35 Percent Change Word Problems Solution: 25 – 7 = 18 18 ÷ 7 = 2.57 = 257% increase

36 More Examples Solution: 32 – 9 = 23 23 ÷ 32 = 0.72 = 72% decrease

37 More Examples Solution: 100% + 14% = 114% = 1.14 25 ÷ 1.14 = 21.9 Note: Since the second value is given, then we divide instead of multiplying.

38 More Examples Solution: 100% - 72.5% = 27.5% = 0.275 40 (0.275) = 11
