allright, say you have to get 35% of 1700. 35% is the same as 35/100 (35 over 100) which is the same as .35 so you multiply .35 X 1700 to get your answer. the same goes for 2% of 50 or something. 2% is the same as .02, so you would multiply .02 X 50 to get your answer.

Well, what's the number? :) (that you have to find the percenatage of?) ie 80

100% = 80
50 % = 40
25% = 20
12.5% = 10
blah blah, so yeah, and way to do it is by halving the percentage each time. :)
