The 22 in each question should be matched to the part of the problem it represents as follows;

What percent of 22 is 3? ↔ base

22 is what percent of 164? ↔ amount

What is 4% of 22? ↔ base

8 is 22% of what number? ↔ percent

What is 5% of 22? ↔ base

In Mathematics and Euclidean Geometry, a percentage is any number that is expressed as a fraction of hundred (100). This ultimately implies that, a percentage indicates the hundredth parts of any given number.

In order to determine the number or amount of a percentage, we would apply the following mathematical expression (formula);

Amount = percent × base number

What percent of 22 is 3? ↔ base

base = 22

amount = 3

22 is what percent of 164? ↔ amount

base = 164

amount = 22

What is 4% of 22? ↔ base

percent = 4.

base = 22

8 is 22% of what number? ↔ percent

percent = 22.

amount = 8

What is 5% of 22? ↔ base

percent = 5.

base = 22
