kondor19780726 [428]

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

For the proportion method first set up the equation like this:

Perform the cross multiplication and then solve for the missing part.

For example:

Find 80 percentage of 10.

Step 1: Set up the equation.

$\frac{Part}{10}=\frac{80}{100}$

$\frac{Part}{10}=\frac{4}{5}$

Step 2: Perform the cross multiplication

$Part=\frac{4}{5}\times 10$

Step 3: Solve for the missing part.

$Part=4 \times 2$

$Part=8$
