Question

Out of the 25 students in Mrs. Green's class, 10 have a pet. What percent of the students in Mrs. Green's class have a pet?

Answer 1

40% of Mrs. Green's student has a pet.

In order to calculate this you:

First, you divide the low number by the high number. In this case that would be 10 / 25= 0.4.

Lastly, you will multiple the answer from your division (0.4) by 100. This would be 0.4 x 100= 40.
