PERCENTAGE, RATE, and
BASE
 (Percentage = Base x Rate)

What
Is
Percentage?
The result obtained
when a number is
multiplied by a percent.

Clue: “is”
 (Rate = Percentage / Base)

What
Is
Rate?
The ratio of amount to the
base. It is written as a
percent.

Clue: %
 (Base = Percentage / Rate)

What
Is
Base?
The whole in a
problem. The amount you
are taking a percent of

Clue: “of”
In symbols,
(Percentage = Base x Rate)

(Rate = Percentage / Base)

(Base = Percentage / Rate)

What is 35% of 200?
What is 35% of 200?

Given: Rate = 35% Base = 200 P = ?

Equation: P = R x B

P = 35% (200)

change the rate into decimal.

P = 0.35 (200)

P = 70
40% is 30 of what number?
 40% is 30 of what number?

Rate = 40% Percentage = 30 B = ?

Equation: B = P / R

B = 40% / 30

change the rate into decimal.

B = 0.40 / 30

B = 75
45 is what percent of 70?
 45 is what percent of 70?
Given: Rate = ? Base = 70 P = 45

Equation: R = P / B

R = 45 / 70
change the rate into decimal.

R = 0.45 / 70

R = 0.6438571

R = 0.643
R = 0.643 X 100 R = 64.3%
