Detailed calculations and the verification of the result
A brief introduction. Percent, p%
'Percent (%)' means 'out of one hundred':
90% = 90 'out of one hundred',
p% is read p 'percent',
p% = p/100 = p ÷ 100
90% = 90/100 = 90 ÷ 100 = 0.9
100% = 100/100 = 100 ÷ 100 = 1
What does it mean:
Percentage of 90% of
which number is equal to 45?
90% of what number = 45
... is equivalent to multiplying them:
90% × number = 45
Number calculation, finding the missing unknown number
Percentage of 90% of what number = 45?
Let y be the number that we have to calculate.
90% × y = 45 =>
y =
45 ÷ 90% =
45 ÷ (90 ÷ 100) =
(100 × 45) ÷ 90 =
4,500 ÷ 90 =
50
90% of 50 = 45
Proof of the calculations
How do we check the result?
We carry out the reverse operation:
If 90% × 50 = 45 =>
Divide 45 by 50...
... And see if we get as a result: 90%
A quick note:
Multiply a number by the fraction 100/100,
... and its value doesn't change.
100/100 = 100 ÷ 100 = 1
n/100 = n%, any number.
Calculate the percentage value:
See if we get the percentage of 90%
We will prove below that the calculations are correct.
45 ÷ 50 =
0.9 =
0.9 × 100/100 =
(0.9 × 100)/100 =
90/100 =
90%
The answer:
Percentage
of 90% of what number = 45?
90% × ? = 45
90% of 50 = 45

Three examples of problems that can be solved out using the information in this section:
Problem 1:
- 25% of the annual profit of a company was invested in buying some new equipment. The total amount invested in buying the new equipment was 100,000 dollars. What was the annual profit of the company?
- Rewrite: 25% of the Profit means 100,000 dollars => 25% × Profit = 100,000 dollars => Profit = 100,000 ÷ 25% dollars = 100,000 ÷ 25/100 dollars = 100,000 × 100/25 dollars = 100,000 × 4 dollars = 400,000 dollars;
Problem 2:
- 20% of the students in the terminal year have enrolled into the swimming class. In total, 7 students have enrolled. How many students are in the terminal year?
- Rewrite: 20% of the students means 7 students => 20% × Total number of students = 7 => The total number of students = 7 ÷ 20% = 7 ÷ 20/100 = 7 × 100/20 = 7 × 5 = 35;
Problem 3:
- In the last elections 49% of community memebrs voted for the A Party, 32% for the B Party, and the rest for the C Party. 17,920 people voted for the B Party. How many members are in the community, all in all?
- Rewrite: 32% of the total community members means 17,920 people => 32% × The total number of community members = 17,920 => The total number of community members = 17,920 ÷ 32% people = 17,920 ÷ 32/100 people = 17,920 × 100/32 people = 17,920/32 × 100 = 560 × 100 people = 56,000 people.
Problem: 45 is 90 percent of what number?
Solution:
One way to calculate percentages is to use this general percentage formula:
If you know any two values of the formula, you can calculate the third one. In this example, you know the 'part' (45) and the 'percentage' (90%). So, you can find the 'whole'.
By replacing the given values in the formula, you get:
Cross-multiply:
90 × whole = 45 × 100
Divide by 90 and get the whole:
whole | = | 45 × 100 | = | 50 |
