The Percent Proportion
This set-up can be used to solve ANY percentage problem that gives you 2 numbers (the 100 is automatically input).
2
What is 25% of 300?
The 25 has a % sign, so it goes above the 100.
The 300 has OF in front, so it goes on the bottom left.
3
What is 25% of 300?
Next, we cross-multiply the numbers diagonal from each other.
300 x 25 = 7500
And then divide by the last number (does not have someone diagonal to it).
7500 / 100
Two steps; Multiply and Divide to get your answer ... 75
