if 100% of 280=1*280=280
\n" ); document.write( "to find the number for a % u divide the % by 100. ex 80%/100=.8 95%/100=.95
\n" ); document.write( "so 95% of 280=.95(280)=266
\n" ); document.write( "so if u are decreasing 95% u are subtracting 95% of 280 from 280
\n" ); document.write( "so its 280-266= \"highlight%2814%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
