Last class: We learned how to find PART Today… We’ll learn how to find BASE
Use the basic percent formula to solve for BASE. P = B R Solve for B. B = P/R
Example: • 8 is 4% of ______. 8 = 200 .04
Solve for base, using B = P/R • 15 is 10% of ______. • 62 is 1% of ______. • 1.6 is 40% of ______. 150 6200 4
