To figure out percentages, it helps to think of it like pieces of a pie. Since 50% is half of something, then 65% must be slightly more than half of something. This helps you visualize the situation and gives you a good idea if the answer you come up with makes sense.
Calculation of a percentage is basically a multiplication problem. You simply take the amount of the percent, drop the "%" symbol, then move the decimal point two places to the left. Replace the word "of" by a multiplication sign, and multiply the remaining number by the percentage, and you're done!
In your example:
65% of $65.00 becomes:
(0.65) * 65
= $42.25
and
65% of $50.00 =
(0.65) * 50
= $32.50
It takes practice, but you will get it! Keep trying, it will come to you!

First you must move your decimal from right to left two places making your 65% to .65 .Now if you remember in school "of" means to multiply.So now you set up your problem as follows: .65 x 65.00 = 42.25 And you do the same with the other problem.Hope this helps.
