    This is probably only useful when you’re finding percentages of 50 or 100.

      No way! 68% of 120 is 120% of 68, so drop the 100% now i just need to figure out 20% of 68 or do i need 68% of 20 which is really just 6 tens plus 8% so divide 20 by 10, then times 6 which is 12, now we need 8% of 20 which is just 20% of 8 or whichdies
