Converting an improper fraction to a mixed number:




Formula for a proportion:




In a proportion, the product of the extremes (ad) equal the product of the means(bc),

Thus, ad = bc

Percent:

Percent to fraction: x% = x/100

Percentage formula: Rate/100 = Percentage/base

Rate: The percent.
Base: The amount you are taking the percent of.
Percentage: The answer obtained by multiplying the base by the rate

Consumer math formulas:

Discount = list price discount rate

Sale price = list price discount

Discount rate = discount list price

Sales tax = price of item tax rate

Interest = principal rate of interest time

Tips = cost of meals tip rate

Commission = cost of service commission rate
