1 Applying percents

2 Understanding Cross multiplying  Proportions are equal, what do we notice about the cross products

3 Percent Review  Percent means parts per 100. The symbol is % Example: 25% means 25 per 100 0 10 20 30 40 50 60 60 80 90 100

4 Percent Proportion CCompares part of a quantity to the whole quantity, called the base, using a percent. TThe percent proportion is: part whole percent 100 = a b p =

5 Percent Proportion.  What number is 30% of 150? a 150 30 100 = Cross multiply. 100a = 4500 100 a = 45 So 45 is 30% of 150. 0 10 20 30 40 50 60 60 80 90 100 150 Each box represents How much of 150? 15

6 Proportions for Percent Problems Part (is) Whole (of) 100 Percent The variable can be placed in the Part, Whole, or Percent.

7 Proportions for Percent Problems Part Whole 100 Percent Louis got 40 out of 50 correct on his test. What is his percent correct? 40 50 100 x 50x = 40  100 50x = 4000 50 x = 80 Louis got 80% right.

8 Proportions for Percent Problems Susan answered 90% of the questions from an online survey. If she has answered 18 questions, how many questions were on the survey? 18 x 100 90 x = 20 The survey had 20 questions. Part Whole 100 Percent

9 Proportions for Percent Problems Five hundred students applied to Jordan’s IB magnet. How many will get accepted if Jordan IB only accepts 40% ? x 500100 40 x = 200 200 students 200 students will be accepted into Jordan’s IB magnet. Part Whole 100 Percent
