To find the percentage of any number,,,,,take that number and multiply it by the the amount of the percentage. You have to change the percentage amount into a decimal number. With percentages, the decimal is always at the end. You move the decimal 2 number over. So, to change the 10% here, you move the decimal from the O to the left twice which puts it in front of the 1 (10. = .10). Then take the $3500 and times it by the .10 and that will give you the $350.
You follow this process for every problem you have. (An easy thing to remember is when you see the "of" in a problem like this, it means to multiply.

$350 because basically $3500 x .10 is what you are doing and that is the same as $3500 divide by 10 so the answer is 350.

1% is 1/100
1% of 3500$ = 1/100 x 3500$ = 35$
(10% of 3500$) = 350$

Change the percent to a decimal 0.10 and multiply
0.1 x $3500 = $350

To find percentage, first divide 10 by 100 so the decimal representation is 0.1 and now multiply $3500 ("of" means multiplication). 0.1*$3500=$350.
