With per cents, think "is/of" which would be 144/32 =4.5 = 450%.
You can also put it in equation form: 144= 32x
divide by 32 and, again you get x = 4.5 = 450%

144/32 = 4.5
4.5*100 = 450%.
To find what percent a is of b divide a by b and
multiply by 100.

144= nx32 so you take the 144/32 = n
n = 4.5
this is the easiest way to figure it out.
Just write it out like I did.
Divide the 144 by 32 and you have your answer..
You can check it by multilplying 4.5 x 32 and making sure answer is 144.
Hope this helps
144= n x 32 best formula

144 Divided by 32 = 4.5
4.5 in percentage would be 450%

To figure percent, you divide the whole into the part. The number to the right of the decimal point is the percent. In this case the "part" is larger than the whole, so it will be more than 100%.

x/100 = 144/32
x=450
Therefore, 450 is 144% of 32.
