For this question, we want to find out what 9 / 12 equals as a percent or x / 100. Therefore, we have a proportion here and can say: 9/12 = x/100 Now, at this point, we can cross multiply to get: 900 = 12x Now, divide both sides by 12 to get x alone and find that: x = 75 <==== FINAL ANSWER
so 9 is 12% of 75!
I hope that helps you out! Please let me know if you have any other questions!
