📚 What is a Percentage?

A percentage shows a part of a total using 100 as the base. Think of it like slicing something into 100 equal pieces — the percentage tells you how many pieces you’re working with.

Quick example:

If you own 50 stickers and give away 5, you gave away 10% of your stickers.

🧠 Percentage Formula (Simple Breakdown)

The core formula for percentage math is:

 
(Percentage ÷ 100) × Number = Result

Example:

You have 80 coins, and you want to know 25% of it.

 
(25 ÷ 100) × 80 = 20

✅ That means 25% of 80 is 20 coins.
