10.67%

Use the proportion method to solve these:

$\frac{part}{whole} = \frac{percent}{100}$ $"part"/"whole"="percent"/100$

You want to solve for what part of 97 is 11%?

$\frac{part}{97} = \frac{11}{100}$ $"part"/97=11/100$

cross multiply:

$100 \cdot part = 11 \cdot 97$ $100*"part" = 11*97$

$100 \cdot part = 1067$ $100*"part" = 1067$

$part = \frac{1067}{100}$ $"part" = 1067/100$

$part = 10.67$ $"part" = 10.67$
