I'll give a practice problem to help explain it a bit better.
Here, let's try to solve 45% of of 60.
First, we convert the percentage into a decimal. To turn any percentage into a decimal you move the point two spaces to the left.
That means 45% as a decimal is .45.
Next, we multiply our number, 60, by the decimal .45.
60×.45=27.
That means 45% of 60 is 27.
To sum it all up, you have to get the percentage, move the decimal point two spaces to the left, and multiply it by the number you were trying to find the percentage of.
Have a wonderful day! :)

Answer: Nick must now at least 6 yards.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since Nick has $80 saved already, and he makes $40 per yard that he mows, thus can be put up in an equation as:
= 80 + 40y
where y = number of yards
Since Nick needs to raise at least $320 for his trip, the equation to solve this will be:
80 + 40x ≥ 320
40x ≥ 320 - 80
40x ≥ 240
x ≥ 240/40
x ≥ 6
Therefore, Nick must now at least 6 yards.
