<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Introduction:</strong></h2>



<p>You can display percent in several ways, such as 0.01 or 0.1 and also in fractional form.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>



<p>You have heard the word percent on a broader level. In this session, you will learn how to find the <strong>whole</strong> quantity when <strong>a part</strong> and <strong>a percent</strong> is given.&nbsp;</p>



<p>To determine totals from a percent in the future, multiply the given <a href="https://www.turito.com/learn/math/percents-of-numbers-grade-7">percentage</a> value by 100 and divide that product by the percent. This method works in any instance where a percentage and its value are given.  </p>



<p>We can use this equation to find the unknown value,&nbsp;</p>

<p>Using Equation&nbsp;</p>



<p>Let’s use a double line diagram and Equation to find the Unknown Whole.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>



<p><strong>Method 1: Double line diagram</strong>&nbsp;</p>



<p><strong>Example 1: </strong>Joe scores 104 marks in his entrance test, which is 80% of total marks. Find  the total marks. &nbsp;</p>

<p>104 ÷8 = 13&nbsp;</p><div class="fillWidthInMob"><a loading='lazy' class="showAdInAllRes"  data-toggle="modal" data-target=#homeLeadForm data-heading="Get Expert Guidance" href="#"><img class="img-fluid" alt="parallel" src=https://a.storyblok.com/f/128066/1100x230/00b28b4876/11-applying-for-collages_leaderboard-1100x230.jpg /></a></div>



<p>So, 13 × 10 = 130&nbsp;</p>



<p>Therefore, 80% of 130 is 104.&nbsp;</p>



<p><strong>Method 2: Use Equation</strong>&nbsp;</p>



<p><strong>Example 1:&nbsp; </strong>You spent $10 or 20% of your pocket money in the first three days of the month. Find the total pocket money you got.&nbsp;</p>



<p><strong>Solution:</strong> Here we have, part = $10, percent = 20%, whole = ?&nbsp;</p>



<p>Now, using the equation,&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>

<p><strong>Example2: </strong>Jose got 8 questions right on his test. If his grade was 80%, how many questions were on the test?&nbsp;</p>



<p><strong>Solution:</strong> Here we have, part = 8 questions, percent = 80%, whole =?&nbsp;</p>



<p>Now, using the equation,&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>

<h3 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>More Word Problems: Understand Percent</strong>&nbsp;</h3>



<p><strong>Example: </strong>Two of the pets at the pet store are birds. If it is 10% of the pets at the store. How many pets are at the store?&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>



<p><strong>Solution:&nbsp;</strong>&nbsp;</p>



<p>Here we have, part = 2, percent = 10%&nbsp;</p>



<p>Whole =?&nbsp;</p>



<p>Using an equation,&nbsp;</p>
