Find the whole from a percent worksheets

What is on this worksheet

Students are told that a number is a percent of the whole, such as 25%, and find the whole, with wholes up to 200.

• Question: Find the whole

You can change any of these settings above. Press "New problems" for a fresh set with the same settings, or pick Version A to Z to print different sheets for neighboring desks. The answer key always matches.

About percent of a number

Choose the question type: the part (25% of 80), the percent (15 is what percent of 60), or the whole (12 is 20% of what number). Percents can be the friendly ones (10, 20, 25, 50, 75), steps of 5, or any whole percent that gives a whole-number answer, with numbers up to 1,000.

The numbers are chosen so every answer is a whole number. The solved example turns the percent into a fraction in lowest terms, which works for every case.

Printing

US Letter or A4, portrait: choose your paper size above. Print at 100 percent (actual size). Use "Black and white" for the copier, or "Color" for display pages and mini books.
