7.2 Percentages:You can represent “ a is p percent of b” using the percent proportion:

=

= =

=

Ex: what percent of 56 is 42?

cross multiply 56(x) = 100(42) divide by 56 x = 4200/56

=

Ex: 125% of what number is 17.5?

cross multiply 125(x) = 100(17.5)

divide by 125 x = 1750/125

Ex: A family sells a car to a dealership for 60% less than they paid for it. They paid $9000? For the car. What was the price they sold it the car for?

cross multiply 60(9000) = 100(x)

divide by 100 x = 540000/100

2.10 Change Expressed as Percent:Percent change is the ratio of the amount of change to the original amount:

Percent Change:

Amount of Increase: new amount – original amount

Amount of decrease: original amount – new amount

MAXIMUM & MINIMUM:The most any measurement can be off by is one half of the unit used in measuring.

Ex: A student’s height is measured as 66 in. to the nearest in. What are the student’s maximum and minimum possible heights?

Maximum: (half of the unit more) Since the height is 66 in. and we are using inches, then maximum is .5 in more.

66in. + 0.5 in.= 66.5 in Minimum: (half of the unit less) Since the height is 66 in. and we are using inches, then maximum is .5 in less.

66in. - 0.5 in.= 65.5 in.

MAXIMUM & MINIMUM:The most any measurement can be off by is one half of the unit used in measuring

Ex: An ostrich egg has a mass of 1.1 kg. to the nearest tenth of a kg. Find the minimum and maximum possible measurements.

Minimum: (half of the unit less) Since the mass is 1.1 kg and and we are using decimal, then minimum is .05 less since ½ of 0.1 is 0.05

1.1 kg. - 0.05 kg= 1.05 kg.

Maximum: (half of the unit more) Since the mass is 1.1 kg and and we are using decimal, then maximum is .05 more since ½ of 0.1 is 0.05

1.1 kg. + 0.05 kg= 1.15 kg.
