  2. 6-4 Percent of a Number Course 2 Learn to find the percent of a number.

  3. 6-4 Percent of a Number Part n Part 67 = Whole Whole 90 100 Course 2 The human body is made up mostly of water. In fact, about 67% of a person’s total (100%) body weight is water. If Cameron weighs 90 pounds, about how much of his weight is water? Recall that a percent is a part of 100. Since you want to know the part of Cameron’s body that is water, you can set up and solve a proportion to find the answer.

  4. 6-4 Percent of a Number Course 2 Additional Example 1A: Using Proportions to Find Percents of Numbers Find the percent of each number. 30% of 50 30 100 n 50 = Write a proportion. 30 · 50 = 100 · n Set the cross products equal. 1,500 = 100n Multiply. 1,500 100n Divide each side by 100 to isolate the variable. = 100 100 15 = n 30% of 50 is 15.

  5. 6-4 Percent of a Number Helpful Hint When solving a problem with a percent greater than 100%, the part will be greater than the whole. Course 2

  6. 6-4 Percent of a Number Course 2 Additional Example 1B: Using Proportions to Find Percents of Numbers Find the percent of each number. 200% of 24 200 100 n 24 = Write a proportion. 200 · 24 = 100 · n Set the cross products equal. 4,800 = 100n Multiply. 4,800 Divide each side by 100 to isolate the variable. 100n = 100 100 48 = n 200% of 24 is 48.

  7. 6-4 Percent of a Number Course 2 Check It Out: Example 1A Find the percent of each number. 40% of 40 40 100 n 40 = Write a proportion. 40 · 40 = 100 · n Set the cross products equal. 1,600 = 100n Multiply. 1,600 100n Divide each side by 100 to isolate the variable. = 100 100 16 = n 40% of 40 is 16.

  8. 6-4 Percent of a Number Course 2 Check It Out: Example 1B Find the percent of each number. 150% of 64 150 100 n 64 = Write a proportion. 150 · 64 = 100 · n Set the cross products equal. 9,600 = 100n Multiply. 9,600 Divide each side by 100 to isolate the variable. 100n = 100 100 96 = n 150% of 64 is 96.

  9. 6-4 Percent of a Number Course 2 In addition to using proportions, you can find the percent of a number by using decimal equivalents.

  10. 6-4 Percent of a Number Course 2 Additional Example 2A: Using Decimal Equivalents to Find Percents of Numbers Find the percent of the number. Check whether your answer is reasonable. 9% of 80 Write the percent as a decimal and multiply. 9% of 80 = 0.09 · 80 = 7.2 Model Since 10% of 80 = 8, a reasonable answer for 9% of 80 is 7.2. 9% 40% 20% 60% 0 100% 80% 80 40 60 20 0 7.2

  11. 6-4 Percent of a Number Course 2 Additional Example 2B: Using Decimal Equivalents to Find Percents of Numbers Find the percent of the number. Estimate to check whether your answer is reasonable. 3% of 12 3% of 12 = 0.03 · 12 Write the percent as a decimal and multiply. = 0.36 Estimate 5% · 12 = 0.6, so 3% of 12 is a little less than 0.6. Thus 0.36 is a reasonable answer.

  12. 6-4 Percent of a Number Course 2 Check It Out: Example 2A Find the percent of the number. Check whether your answer is reasonable. 21% of 40 Write the percent as a decimal and multiply. 21% of 40 = 0.21 · 40 = 8.4 Model Since 20% of 40 = 8, a reasonable answer for 21% of 40 is 8.4. 21% 40% 20% 60% 0 100% 80% 40 20 30 10 0 8.4

  13. 6-4 Percent of a Number Course 2 Check It Out: Example 2B Find the percent of the number. Estimate to check whether your answer is reasonable. 6% of 18 6% of 18 = 0.06 · 18 Write the percent as a decimal and multiply. = 1.08 Estimate 5% · 20 = 1, so 6% of 18 is close to 1. Thus 1.08 is a reasonable answer.

  14. 6-4 Percent of a Number Course 2 Additional Example 3: Geography Application The estimated world population in 2001 was 6,157 million. About 40% of the people were 19 or younger. What was the approximate number of people 19 or younger, to the nearest million? Find 40% of 6,157 million. 0.40 · 6,157 Write the percent as a decimal. 2,462.8 Multiply. The number of people 19 or younger was about 2,463 million.

  15. 6-4 Percent of a Number Course 2 Check It Out: Example 3 The estimated world population in 2001 was 6,157 million. About 60% of the people were above 19 years of age. What was the approximate number of people 19 or older, to the nearest million? Find 60% of 6,157 million. 0.60 · 6,157 Write the percent as a decimal. 3,694.2 Multiply. The number of people 19 or older was about 3,694 million.
