There are a variety of ways to find 146% of 700. Arguably the simplest way is to work out 1% of 700 and then multiply it by 146. To do this you would divide 700 by 100 and then multiply the answer by 146.

The word percentage means to divide (per) by 100 (century) so to find a percentage of any number it is useful to first change the percentage into a fraction so the division is clear. In this case 146/100 x 700. Now we can simplify the denominator (100) and numerator (700). 100 goes into 700, 7 times. Our new calculation is now 146 x 7. So the final answer is 1022. There are other ways of finding a percentage of a number. It is a good idea to make sure you find one that makes most sense to you.

Firstly, we need to find out what 1% of 700 is. 1% of 700 is 7. We need to find out what 146% of 700 is, and we know that 1% is 7; so, we have to multiply 7 by 146 in order to get 146%. 7 x 146 = 1022. Therefore, 146% of 700 = 1022.

First turn the 146% into a decimal (divide by 100). This would equal 1.46.
Then times that 1.46 by 700.
1.46 X 700 = 1022

We now have 100% = 700 and 46% = 322, so all we need to do is add them together to get 146%!
700+322=1022, therefore 146% of 700 is 1022
700 is 100% of the number, so we first divide by 100 to find the vale of 1%:
700 ÷ 100 = 7.
We want to find 146% so we multiply our answer by 146:
7 x 146 = 1022
in place of
what, How = x
% = 1/100
of = X
is/was/are/were= '=symbol'
146% of 700 is the question so we shall replace it with our equation format
146X 1/100 X 700 = 1022
Since a percenatge is a number expressed as a fraction of 100 we can use it multiply it by 700 to see what 147% of 700 is.
700/100
7
7*146
1023
First divide by 146/100 and then multiply with 700
(146/100) * 700
100% is already known , it is 700. 10% of 700 is 70. Times 70 by 4, which is 280 for 40%. 5 percent is 700 is 70/2 which is 35. 1 percent is 7. Add 700+280+35+7, which gives you 1022, which is the answer. (so we broke down the 146 percentage into 100%, 40%,5% and 1%, and when added together it will give the right answer)

What we start with is the full amount, so it's 100%.
100% = 700
10% = 70, so 40% = 4 x 70 = 280
1% = 7, so 6% = 6 x 7 = 42
146% = 100% + 40% + 7% = 700 + 280 + 42 = 1022
There are many ways to get the answer
