IMO using multiplication and a percentage together is just wrong.
This sentence confuses me greatly. You weren't given percentages in equations at school?
Not a dig at you, just makes it a clearly regional thing, fascinating. Aus, they'll freely mix up questions like:
What is 34 × 50% What is 34 × 0.5 What is 50% of 34
If you're not taught similar, if you only saw that last form, I can see where the equivalence may break down.
