Which proportion correctly shows the relationship between the part, whole, and percent of a percent problem

Answer:
C. [tex]\frac{Part}{Whole} =\frac{Percent}{100}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
A good way to think about it is this. You know that 1/2 is 50%. It's common knowledge.
In this case 1 is the Part and 2 is the whole
[tex]\frac{Part}{Whole} = \frac{1}{2} = .50[/tex]
So to get 50% in decimal form we would have to divide it by 100 to move the decimal over two places
[tex]\frac{Percent}{100} = \frac{50}{100} = .50[/tex]
Therfore,
[tex]\frac{1}{2} = \frac{50}{100}[/tex]
or
[tex]\frac{Part}{Whole} =\frac{Percent}{100}[/tex]
