How would you find 146% of 700?

1. Convert 146% to a decimal. This will give you 1.46
2. Times the decimal by 700. So, 700 x 1.46 = 1022

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.

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)

First of all, break the 146% down into 100%, 40%, and 6%. The 100% part is the 700. Then to get the 40% we would do (700/10) x 4 = 280. Then to find the 6% we would do (700/100) x 6 = 42. Once the three have been worked out, all that is left is to add them up. 700 + 280 + 42 = 1022

The thing with percentages is that it is always calculated in hundreds. Another thing that applies to all percentages is that it can be turned into decimals. Just put a 0. in front of it (Unless it is more than 100%)!

1 = 100%

0.75 = 75%

0.91 = 91%

1.36 = 136%

See the correlation? Therefore...

146% is 1.46

In this case, 700 (dependent number) = 100%

146% of 700 is...

1.46 x 700 = 1.46 x 700 = 1022

I would times 700 by 1.46

Divide 700 by 100 and then multiply by 146. This way you are first finding one percent and then finding 146 percent
