What is the percentage?

• The Latin word "per centum," which means "by the hundred," was the source of the English word "percentage."
• Fractions with a denominator of 100 are called percentages. In other words, it is a relationship where the value of the entire is always assumed to be 100.
• A percentage is a ratio or fraction where the full value is always 100. Sam, for instance, would have received 30 out of a possible 100 points if he had received 30% on his arithmetic test. In ratio form, it is expressed as 30:100 and in fraction form as 30/100.

Amount charged =$850

tip from the group=17 percent

The total amount that the captain receives for the fishing trip=850+17 percent 850

=850+(0.17X850)

=$994.5

The total amount that the captain receives for the fishing trip=850+17 percent $994.5
