What is percentage?
A figure or ratio stated as a fraction of 100 is called a percentage. Although the abbreviations "pct.", "pct.", and occasionally "pc" are also used, the percent symbol, "%," is frequently used to indicate it. A % is a number without dimensions and without a measurement system.
Now we are given a percent p of a value let us say x and that value be v
We have to find the initial value let us say that value to be 'P'
To find that we use proportion
That is ratio of value to their respective percentage will be equal
Hence we will have
P/100 = v/ x
P= (v/x)*100
Hence we get the initial value
