Question 1186098: Find the missing value
_%= x/5= 0.2

your problem statement is:

_% = x/5 = .2

percent = rate * 100
rate = percent / 100

any time you are multiplying something by a percent, you are multiplying by the percent / 100.

example: 20% * 1 = 10/100 * 1 = .2

you have _% = .2
since .2 = 20%, you get:
_ = 20

the missing value is 20.

your statement becomes:
20% = x/5 = .2
