How to Calculate Percentages
There are many formulas for percentage problems. You can think of the most basic as X/Y = P x 100. The formulas below are all mathematical variations of this formula.
Let's explore the three basic percentage problems. X and Y are numbers and P is the percentage:
Find P percent of X
Find what percent of X is Y
Find X if P percent of it is Y
Read on to learn more about how to figure percentages.
1. How to calculate percentage of a number. Use the percentage formula: P% * X = Y
Example: What is 10% of 150?
Convert the problem to an equation using the percentage formula: P% * X = Y
P is 10%, X is 150, so the equation is 10% * 150 = Y
Convert 10% to a decimal by removing the percent sign and dividing by 100: 10/100 = 0.10
Substitute 0.10 for 10% in the equation: 10% * 150 = Y becomes 0.10 * 150 = Y
Do the math: 0.10 * 150 = 15
Y = 15
So 10% of 150 is 15
Double check your answer with the original question: What is 10% of 150? Multiply 0.10 * 150 = 15
2. How to find what percent of X is Y. Use the percentage formula: Y/X = P%
Example: What percent of 60 is 12?
Convert the problem to an equation using the percentage formula: Y/X = P%
X is 60, Y is 12, so the equation is 12/60 = P%
Do the math: 12/60 = 0.20
Important! The result will always be in decimal form, not percentage form. You need to multiply the result by 100 to get the percentage.
Converting 0.20 to a percent: 0.20 * 100 = 20%
So 20% of 60 is 12.
Double check your answer with the original question: What percent of 60 is 12? 12/60 = 0.20, and multiplying by 100 to get percentage, 0.20 * 100 = 20%
3. How to find X if P percent of it is Y. Use the percentage formula Y/P% = X
Example: 25 is 20% of what number?
Convert the problem to an equation using the percentage formula: Y/P% = X
Y is 25, P% is 20, so the equation is 25/20% = X
Convert the percentage to a decimal by dividing by 100.
Converting 20% to a decimal: 20/100 = 0.20
Substitute 0.20 for 20% in the equation: 25/0.20 = X
Do the math: 25/0.20 = X
X = 125
So 25 is 20% of 125
Double check your answer with the original question: 25 is 20% of what number? 25/0.20 = 125
Remember: How to convert a percentage to a decimal
Remove the percentage sign and divide by 100
15.6% = 15.6/100 = 0.156
Remember: How to convert a decimal to a percentage
Multiply by 100 and add a percentage sign
0.876 = 0.876 * 100 = 87.6%

how fast is a car moving that travels 120 miles in two hours?
Liza is designing a calendar as a fund-raising project for Math Class. The cost of printing
is 5000php, plus 150php per calendar. Write an equation in slope-intercept form that
models the total cost of printing the calendars.
Answer: y = 150x+5000
Step-by-step explanation:
Equation in slope-intercept form:
y= mx+c , where x= independent variable , y= dependent variable, m= slope , c= y-intercept.
Given: The cost of printing is 5000php, plus 150 php per calendar.
If x= Number of calendar and y= Cost of x calendars.
Then, m= 150 , c= 5000
Equation becomes
y = 150x+5000

In the right triangle below, the measure of angle C is 90°, AB= 5 units, and CB = 2 units. What is tan B?
The value of the tanB is root of 21/2
We have given that ,
C is 90 degrees and side AB=5 units and CB=2 units
We have to find the tan B
We have given that the right angle triangle.
What is the value of tan ratio?
[tex]tan\theta=\frac{opposite side}{adjucent side}[/tex]
Here opposite side side of B is AC and adjacent side of B is CB.
We know the side AB=5 units and CB=2 units
First we have to find the side AC
Therefore by using Pythagoras theorem,
[tex]AB^2=CB^2+AC^2[/tex]
[tex]AB^2-CB^2=AC^2\\25-4=AC^2\\21=AC^2\\[/tex]
Taking square root on both side we have
[tex]\sqrt{21}=AC\\ AC=\sqrt{21}[/tex]
Now we have the tan ratio,
[tex]tan\theta=\frac{opposite side}{adjucent side}\\\\tanB=\frac{AC}{CB}\\\\tanB=\frac{\sqrt{21} }{2}\\[/tex]
Therefore the option F is correct.
The value of the tanB is root of 21/2.

Mal works at a photo gallery. He charges $50 for a large photo and $40 for a large frame. Sales tax is 5%. How much total tax will a customer pay on both?
Answer the questions to show how to write and simplify expressions that represent the problem.
1. One way to calculate the total tax is 0.05(50 + 40). Use the order of operations to evaluate this expression.
2. Use the distributive property to expand 0.05(50 + 40).
3. Find the total tax using the expanded expression. Did you get the same answer as you did by evaluating the original expression?
4. Which expression, the original expression or the expanded expression, involves finding the total cost first, then calculating the tax on that total?
The cost of large photo after sales tax is $94.5.
Given that, Mal charges $50 for a large photo and $40 for a large frame. Sales tax is 5%.
Total cost of large photo = 50+40
= $90
Sales tax on large photo
= 5% of 90
= 5/100 ×90
= 0.05×90
= 4.5
Cost of large photo after tax = 90+4.5
= $94.5
Therefore, the cost of large photo after sales tax is $94.5.

Answer:
Surface Area of the box is 190" or in.
Step-by-step explanation:
We start by determining the surface area formula for the box, which is a rectangular prism:
S = 2(l*w+w*h+l*h), where S = surface area of rectangular prism, l = length, w = width, and h = height.
Since length = 7", width = 2", and height = 9", we can substitute the information given into the formula above.
S = 2((7*2)+(2*9)+(7*9))
= 2(14+18+63)
= 2(95)
= 190"
Surface Area of the box is 190" or in.
