What is a proportion?

A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, that can also be interpreted as a percentage.

To obtain the percentage of an amount relative to the total amount, we divide the amount by the total amount, and then multiply by 100% to convert the proportion to a percentage.

The attributed amount for this problem is given as follows:

$300.

(as it can be any amount less than $575).

Hence the percentage that this amount represents of $575 is given as follows:

300/575 x 100% = 52.17%.

Hence it would fall the bronze category of awards, which is the category for contributions that have a percentage between 1% and 59% of $575.
