Lets assume 89 percent of 797 is X.
Therefore, we can also say, X = 89% of 797
89% can also be written as 89/100, because percent denotes a number per 100.
So, X = 89/100 × 797
Or, X = 0.89 × 797
So, X = 709.33

Now that we have calculated the answer, lets verify it using the percentage formula.
Answer verification
Percentage = Value/Total Value × 100
LHS (Percentage) = 89
RHS = 709.33/797 × 100
Or, RHS = 0.89 × 100
So, RHS = 89
We can see that LHS = RHS, hence it's proved.
