Question

On a necklace of 150 beads 75 beads are glass and 78 are ceramic what percent of beads are glass

Answer 1

well 50% ? , however 75+78 is higher than 150.

Answer 2

Doesn't make sense but with the information given. To find the percentage of glass beads on the necklace, you need to divide the number of glass beads by the total number of beads and multiply by 100.

You can use the formula:

percent = (number of glass beads / total number of beads) x 100

In this case:

percent = (75 / 150) x 100 = 0.5 x 100 = 50

So, 50% of the beads on the necklace are glass.
