Subject: percentage question.

Hello. I need a percentage for a business plan. How much is one-percent of two-hundred and thirty-nine million?
Thank You. Mike.

Hi Mike,

Percent means per one-hundred so 1 percent is 1/100. Thus 1 percent of 239,000,000 is (1/100)x239,000,000 = 2,390,000 or two million three-hundred and ninty thousand.

Cheers,
Penny
