Answer:

The Meaning of Percent

 

A percent is a ratio of a number to 100. Per cent means “per 100,” or “how many out of 100.” You use the symbol % after a number to indicate percent.

 

Notice that 12 of the 100 squares in the grid below have been shaded green. This represents 12 percent (12 per 100).
