Question

Jason claims he has finished reading 25% of his book. If his book has 200 pages, how many pages has he read?

Answer 1

Jason has read 50 pages.

Explanation:

25% of 200 = 50

Remember "of" means multiply so you multiply 25% to 200

25% x 200

Convert 25% into a decimal

0.25 x 200 = 50

So Jason has read 50 pages.
