Question

Jamie , an electrician , worked 7 months out of the year. What percent of the year does he not work? ( round answer to the nearest hundredth)

Answer 1

Jamie works 7 months out of the year. There are 12 months in a year, so Jamie does not work:
12 months- 7 months= 5 months (out of the year).

5 months/ 12 months* 100%= 41.666666...%

Rounded to the nearest hundredth, the answer is 41.67%.

Hope this helps~
