Answer

It helps us in calculating the percent proportion.


Step-by-step explanation

In mathematics, a percentage is a number or ratio expressed as a fraction of 100. It is often denoted using the percent sign, %.

It is a number whose denominator is 100. To get this number we use the formula;

Percentage =
(part of a whole)/(whole)×100%

So, identifying the part of a whole helps us in calculating the percent proportion.
