To find what percentage of 80 is 28, we can use the formula:
Percentage = (Part / Whole) * 100

  1. Identify the 'part' and the 'whole'.

    The 'part' is 28.
    The 'whole' is 80.

  2. Divide the part by the whole.

    2880\frac{28}{80}

  3. Simplify the fraction.

    28÷480÷4=720\frac{28 \div 4}{80 \div 4} = \frac{7}{20}

  4. Convert the fraction to a decimal.

    720=0.35\frac{7}{20} = 0.35

  5. Multiply by 100 to express as a percentage.

    0.35×100=35%0.35 \times 100 = 35\%

    Therefore, 28 is 35% of 80.
