This is a fun one. 

So let me show you an example, 

say we ask the question, 8 is what percent of 32. We can throw these into an equation that looks lime this. X/100=Y/Z, X in this case is 32 because it is the full 100% and we want to find what percent Y (8) is of it. Basically solving for Z. 

So plugging in the numbers, 

32/100=8/Z cross multiply, 800=32z in this problem we get that 8 is 25% of 32. 

That value makes sense so it must be correct. Let me know if you're still confused.

In order to find a percentage, you divide the sample by the total amount.

For example: Tess has 3 cookies out of the total amount of 9. 3/9 = 33.3%

Anthropologists can estimate the height of a woman by measuring the length of her radius bone (from the wrist to the elbow). The
zloy xaker [14]
B = 0.26 h - 18.85,
where b is the length of the radius bone and h is the height.
To find the equation for height of a woman, you can solve the equation for h.
0.26 h = b + 18.85
h = ( b + 18.85 ) / 0.26
h = ( 100 b + 1,885 ) / 26
Then you can plug in the length of the radius bone in this equation.
