Answer 2

Answer with explanation:

He has 20 rock songs, 15 country songs, 10 world songs and 5 classical songs.

There are 50 in total.

• The fraction of songs which are rock songs are:

`(20)/(50)`

which in simplest fraction is given by:

`(2)/(5)`

and on multiplying the fraction with 100 we get the percent of songs.

Hence,

`(2)/(5)* 100=40\%`

• The fraction of songs which are country songs are:

`(15)/(50)`

which in simplest fraction is given by:

`(3)/(10)`

Hence,

`(3)/(10)* 100=30\%`

• The fraction of songs which are world songs are:

`(10)/(50)`

which in simplest fraction is given by:

`(1)/(5)`

Hence,

`(1)/(5)* 100=20\%`

• The fraction of songs which are classical songs are:

`(5)/(50)`

which in simplest fraction is given by:

`(1)/(10)`

Hence,

`(1)/(10)* 100=10\%`
