Finding the rate, base and percentage

Finding the rate, base, and percentage

1. Finding the Rate, Base, and Percentage

2. Finding the Rate The formula in finding Rate is Percentage divided by Base . R = P B Example: R =10% B = 240 P = 24 R = P = 24 B 240 = 0.10 = 10%

3. Finding the Base The formula in finding Base is Percentage divided by Rate . B = P R Example: B =? R = 40% P = 24 B = P = 24 = 24 R 40% 0.40 = 60

4. Finding the Base The formula in finding Percentage is Rate multiplied by Base . P = R X B Example: B =550 R = 40% P = ? P = R X B = 40% X 550 = 0.40 X 550 = 220
