1. here is how ot do this using inequalties. take 9 over 100 (= 9%) = X over 30. forget about the 100 for now. multiply the 9 by the 30 (this is known as cross multiplying because you ar multiplying the two numbers that form a cross) which is 270. now, since the 100 is the only number left divide by that, which is 2.7. basically, take the percent number over 100 = X over the amount. you can use this with almost anything to convert numbers (espacially in cooking) ask your math techer about inequalities (and maybe conversion factors) if you want more help) i hope this could have helped at leasta little bit

1. Multiply 30 by 0.09 (9%) = 2.7.
2. Multiply 312 by 0.25 (25%) = 78.
3. 3/9 divide tpo by bottom, you get 0.3333..now to get %, multiply by 100 = 33.33...%.
4. It would be written as 9/3 so, top divided by botton (9 divided by 3 = 3)...to get %, multiply 3 by 100 = 300%.
5. $40,000 x 0.08 (8%) = $3,200.
6. if 25% = 320, than there were 1280 people called. It's a ratio....(25/100 = 320/x), so cross multiply (100 x 320 = 32000).
32,000 divided by 25 = 1,280 total calls
Hope this helped.

1. 1% or 30 is .3 so 9% of 30 is .3 x 9 which is 2.7%

2. 10%= 31.2 5% = 15. 6 so 31.2 + 31.2 = 62.4 + 15.6 = 78%

3. 33.3333333....%

4. 300%
