Alright, so my problem is that if there is 67,715 people who own a unicycle in a country of 24,820,393, what percent of the country would there be that own unicycles?

Basically, how do you find the percent in an equation like this?

Ouch! They were supposed to have taught you about percentages before assigning homework on them!

To learn how to set up and solve "percent of" word problems, try here. (I'm assuming that you have some concept of what percentages are. If not, then you need way more help than we can provide.)

After you've studied at least two lessons from the link, please attempt the exercise. If you get stuck, please reply showing your thoughts and efforts so far. Thank you! ;)
