How to calculate percentages of a value

a) Given the following parameters;

Area of Sahara desert = 9,000,000km²

If the Australian desert is 42.556% of the size of the Sahara desert in Africa, then the area of the Australian desert is expressed as:

Area of Australian desert = 0.42556 * 9,000,000

Area of Australian desert = 3,830,040km²

b) If dingo density is approximately 0.135 animals km² during the dry season, the approximate number of dingos in the Australian desert during this season. will be:

number of dingos =  0.135 * 3,830,040km²

number of dingos = 517,055.4

Hence the approximate number of dingos will be  517,055
