For me it's easiest to think of the % sign to mean simply "1/100".

- camkego 2y agoThis is the real trick, and then you realize you can multiply both sides by one hundred, and you end up with the commutative property of math: XY = YX
- Jtsummers 2y agoEither of: X**Y=X**Y X\*Y=X\*Y Produces X*Y=X*Y
- a3w 2y agoYes, or as full way to calculate: * 1 / 100 % is calculation of percentage, * 100 % / 1 is calculation of absolute amount. And, as stated in a different comment, remember that the commutative property applies to these numbers.
- jihadjihad 2y agoRight, and once you write it down on paper it becomes obvious. Unfortunately it wasn't anything I remember being taught in school.
