Help, my teacher didn't explain this too well.. and Idk if it is supposed to be: difference\original=%\10

or
part\whole=%\100

Set up as a proportional relationship, reduce to simplest form, and solve.

75% of 52 is what number?

75℅ of 52
75/100=x/52 (As a proportion)
Solution.
3/4=x/52(Reduced form)
4x=3(52)
4x=156
4/4x=156/4
x=39
Therefore, 75 percent of 52 is 39
