5 is 50 % of 10 and 75 % of 6. 77.

How to find the percentage?

You can find the number that 5 is a percentage of, by dividing 5 by the percentage.

In the case of what number 5 is 50 % of, the formula is:

= Number / Percentage

= 5 / 50 %

= 5 / 0. 5

= 10

The same applies for the 75 % which would make it:

= 5 / 75 %

= 5 / 0. 75

= 6. 7

In both cases, you are calculating the portion or fraction of a number (5) with respect to another number (10 and 6.67) using percentages (50% and 75%).
