Learn about percentages, solving simple percentages problems and how to use equivalences between common fractions and percentages. This course is ideal for intermediate learners.
Introduction.
Percentage means out of 100.
It is represented by the percentage symbol (%).
1% means 1 out of 100 and is the same as .
To find 1% of an amount, divide it by 100.
Example
1% of 500 is \( \frac{500}{100} \) or 5.
Half, or 50%, of the squares are green (the top row of squares). The other half, or 50%, of the squares are white (the bottom row of squares).
Let’s add these percentages together: 50% + 50% = 100%.
Together the parts of the whole rectangle add up to 100%.
