Calculations:

• Option: calculate one percent first

  The most straightforward way of calculating percent of the number, is to find out what is one percent of the number first. One percent is one-hundredth part of something. In our case:

  100 / 100 = 1

  Then, having one-hundredth part, take as many parts, as many percent you need (not necessarily the whole number). Here:

  25 * 1 = 25

  Thus, 25% of 100 equals 25

• Opiton: first, get the fraction of one

  Options 1 consisted of two steps. In order to simplify the math a bit, you can divide number of percents you need to take, by 100. This will give you a fraction of one.

  If you need to take 1 percent: 1 / 100 = 0.01

  5 percent: 5 / 100 = 0.05

  35 percent: 0.35

  100 percent: 100 / 100 = 1

  For you input:

  25 / 100 = 0.25

  Having the fraction, multiply it by your number:

  0.25 * 100 = 25

  This scenario is useful when you are using physical classic calculator or the one on your gadget, you can easily calculate first part on the fly. As you saw, dividing by 100 is extremely easy - you just move decimal point two figures left. That's why you only need to multiply 2 numbers is one step to get the result

  100	-is-	100%
  x	-is-	25%
