SO! We have been looking at Percentages and how to work them out. SO! Here are the equations we have looked out
"To write an amount as a percentage, write it first as a fraction and then convert it into a percentage"
(top ፥ bottom x 100 or amount ፥ total x 100)
For example
3 out of 25.
3
25
3 ፥ 25 = 0.12
0.12 x 100 = 12
12%
"To calculate an certain amount, use this rule"
(Percentage ፥ 100 x amount)
FOR EXAMPLE!
25% of 66
25
100
25 ፥ 100 = 0.25
0.25 x 66 = 16.5
25% of 66 is 16.5
"For percentage increase, multiply the original amount by"
(1+ percentage ፥ 100)
SO! For example
A 15% increase for $40
115
100
115 ፥ 100 = 1.15
1.15 x 40 = 46
LOOK! I DID MATH THIS TIME! BE PROUD OF ME! It is kinda boring though. Time to spice things up! So... Pictures or random shiz? Both....? *evil smirk* LETS GO! Pic's first!
Sooo. I got distracted and can no longer add random shiz here, SO HAVE SOME BEAUTIFUL BOYS (and girls) INSTED
