remember percent means parts out of 100
so  x%=x/100

'of' means mutiply

so
17 is what percent of 68
17=x/100 timees 68
solve for x

17=x/100 times 68
mutliply both sides by 100
1700=x times 68
divide both sides by 68
25=x

the naswe ri s25%

Since 68 is the whole number, divide that by 100, so 68/100. It equals 0.68.
Then, divide .68 from 17, so 17/0.68. That gives you 25. 
The answer would be that 17 is 25% of 68.
