Find the percent when the amount and base are known.

amount / base = percent

Divide 6.50 by 65

6.50 / 65 = 0.1

Multiply 100 times the decimal and attach the % symbol.

100 x 0.1 = 10%

6.50 is 10% of 65

$20 out of $65 is 30.8%
$14 out of $65 is 21.5%
$4.50 out of $65 is 6.9%

Answer 5

translation tip:
"What percent is N of M" means
percentage = 100 * (N/M) %

so,
"What percent is $6.50 of $65"
percentage = 100 * (6.5/65) % = 10 %
where
N = first number = 6.5
M = second number = 65

You get the idea to do the rest.
