    125/100 = 425/x. first find x. so multiply both sides by 100

    so 125=42500/x. now multiply both sides by x

    so 125x=42500. divide both sides by 125

    so x=340. now, find 65% of 340. to find this, we set up the proportion (like the previous one) 65/100=x/340

    we multiply both sides by 100

    so 65=100x/340

    multiply both sides by 340

    so 22100=100x

    divide both sides by 100

    so x = 221

    which is 65% of the number
