  1. 16 = 400% x 4


  2. 16 (is means equals) equals (what percent means x over 100) x/100 (of means multiply) times 4

    16=x/100 times 4

    16=4x/100 (so you multiply both sides by 100 to get x to be a whole number)

    1600=400x (divide both sides by 400)

    400=x  so its 400%

  3. since 4 is less than 16, the percentage will be higher than 100. in fact, 16 is 4 x 4. This means you have 100%, and multiply it by for, so the answer is 400%.

  4. To find what percent a is of b, you divide a by b and multiply by 100%. So, if you are trying to find what percent 16 is of 4, you would divide 16 by 4-->16/4 = 4 and multiply the answer by 100%-->4 x 100% = 400%. I hope that helps.

  5. 4 over 100 = 16 over X

    X= 400

    USE CROSS MULTIPLICATION

    then solve it out

  6. 400

  7. 400%
