Answer 1

of is to multiply so worded out into an equation looks like this:
?% x 306000 = 8200

?% = 0.026797
multiply by 100 for the percentage to get :
2.68%

Answer 2

Ok, so to find a percentage you multiply the decimal form of the percentage of the number you want a percent of. In simpler terms:

x * 306 000 = 8 200

Then, preform the algebra (8200/306000) and you get 0.026797 ... or 2.6797%

Answer 3

2.679738562 You devide 8200 by 306,000 then move the dec point over 2 places

Answer 4

You would divide 8,200 by 306,000 to get 0.0268 or 2.68%.

ie

x(306,000) = 8,200, where x = 0.0268

Move the decimal over two places to get a percentage.

Answer 5

Make x equal to the percentage in decimals.

So you have

306,000x = 8200

Now divide both sides by 306,000

You get x = .0268 (rounded)

Now mult. that answer by 100 to get it in percentage form

.0268 x 100 =

2.68%

Now check you answer by multiplying 306,000 by .0268 (always must multiply it in decimal form) to make sure it equals 8,200 (it might be a bit off because we rounded)

Answer 6

8200= X(306,000)
8200/306,000= X
X= .027
.027 x 100 (per cent means for every hundred) = 2.7 %

Answer 7

let me help u and u will never forget
what=x
percentage=%
of=times
equal==

now
x%*306,000=8200
x/100*306,000=8200
3060x=8200
x=8200/3060
x=2.67974

if u follow that u will never forget

Answer 8

2.6797385%

( 8,200 x 100 ) : 306,000 = 2.6797385

Answer 9

You divide the smaller number by the larger number and then move the decimal point over two places to the right...you should get 2.68% (rounded up).

Answer 10

306000 * (x/100) = 8200
x/100 = 8200/306000
x = (8200/306000) * 100
= 2.68%

(x=percentage)

Hope this helps
