Question

Matt has answered 20 over 25 of the questions on a test. what percentage of the test question has Matt answered

Answer 1

80% because 25 goes into 100 4 times and 20 times 4 equals 80.

Answer 2

So,

Matt answered 20 out of 25 questions.

`(20)/(25)`

We need to get the denominator to be 100. We can do that by multiplying the fraction by a form of 1.

`(20)/(25) * (4)/(4) = (80)/(100)`

From here, it should be easy to see that Matt has answered 80% of his test.
