When you're getting ready to find the percent of a number,
you'll know even before you start that ...
-- If the percent is less than 100%, the result will be
less than the number.
-- If the percent is more than 100%, the result will be
more than the number.
Why do you think this is ?
-- ' 100% ' means ' 1 '.
-- If you take less than 100% of the number, that means
less than the whole thing.
-- If you take more than 100% of the number, that means
more than the whole thing.
