Example Question #4 : How To Find The Part From The Whole With Percentage

What is $22 \frac{1}{2} \%$ of $22 \frac{1}{2}$ ?

Possible Answers:

$50\frac{5}{8}$

$5 \frac{1}{16}$

100

$\frac{81}{160}$

Correct answer:

$5 \frac{1}{16}$

Explanation:

$22 \frac{1}{2} \%$ of $22 \frac{1}{2}$ can be rewritten as

$\frac{22 \frac{1}{2} }{100} \times 22 \frac{1}{2}$

$= \frac{45}{2} \times \frac{1}{100} \times \frac{45}{2}$

$= \frac{45 \times 1 \times 45}{2 \times 100 \times 2}$

$= \frac{2,025}{400} = \frac{2,025 \div 25}{400\div 25} = \frac{81}{16} = 5 \frac{1}{16}$

Possible Answers:

8,000

$5\frac{5}{9}$

$55\frac{5}{9}$

800

Correct answer:

$55\frac{5}{9}$

Explanation:

$8\frac{1}{3} \%$ of $666 \frac{2}{3} \%$ is equal to:

$\frac{8 \frac{1}{3} }{100} \times 666 \frac{2}{3} \%$

$= \frac{ \frac{25}{3} }{100} \times \frac{2,000}{3}$

$= \frac{25}{3} \times \frac{1 }{100} \times \frac{2,000}{3}$

Cross-cancel:

$\frac{25}{3} \times \frac{1 }{1} \times \frac{20}{3}$

$= \frac{500}{9} = 55\frac{5}{9}$

$8,888\frac{8}{9}$

720,000

Correct answer:

720,000

Explanation:

Taking 8,000%, as a decimal, is equivalent to multiplying it by $8,000 \div 100 = 80$ , so 8,000% of 9,000 is equivalent to

$80 \times 9,000 = 720,000$ .
