To calculate percentage, use the formula:

Percentage = (Part/Whole) x 100

For example, to calculate 30% of 100:

30% of 100 = (30/100) x 100 = 30

Breaking it down:

- The part is 30

- The whole is 100

- (Part/Whole) = 30/100 = 0.3

- 0.3 x 100 = 30

So 30% of 100 is 30.

To calculate percentages in other scenarios, just identify the part and whole amounts and plug them into the formula.
