	Using the Proportion Method to Solve Percent Problems		Show/Hide
	Any percent can be written as a proportion
	PERCENT (%)		Show/Hide
	means how many for each 100		80% of students passed math
	The percent always goes over 100 (It's a part of the whole 100%)
	Types of percent problems		Show/Hide
	There are three basic types of percent problems:
	Find the Percent		48 is what percent of 60?
	Find the Part		What number is 80% of 60?
	Find the Whole		80% of what number is 48?
	Write the problem as a proportion (In a proportion the cross-products are equal)
	To solve multiply the two opposite corners with numbers, then divide by the other number.
