Remember:
A percent is a rate per 100: \(35\% = \frac{35}{100} = 0.35\).
To find a percent of a number, multiply the number by the percent written as a decimal.
To find the whole, divide the part by the percent written as a decimal.
To find what percent a part is, divide the part by the whole and multiply by 100.
A percent bar model shows \(100\%\) split into equal parts.
