18 9
(a) 18% = = = 9 : 50
100 50
25 25 1
(b) 0.25% = % = = = 1 : 400
100 100 100 400
×
46 46 23
(c) 4.6% = % = = = 23 : 500
10 100 10 500
×
280 14
(d) 280% = = = 14 : 5

Parts Always Add to Give a Whole
All parts of a quantity or a number are added together to form a whole or 100%.
So, if we are given one part, we can always find out the
other part.
Suppose there are 60% girls in your class, that means Quick Check
there are 100 students, then 60 out of 100 are girls and the 1. 35% + _______% = 100%
remaining would be boys. 2. 64% + 20% +________ % = 100%
3. 45% = 100% – _________ %
Thus, there would be (100 – 60)% = 40% boys in the class. 4. 70% = ______% – 30%
