Question

There are 370 fish in the school pond, and 296 are goldfish. What percent of the fish are goldfish? help pls

Answer 1

80% of the fish in the school pond are goldfish.

Explanation:

To find the percentage of goldfish in the pond, we need to divide the number of goldfish by the total number of fish and multiply by 100.

percent of goldfish = (number of goldfish / total number of fish) x 100%

So, in this case:

percent of goldfish = (296 / 370) x 100%

percent of goldfish = 0.8 x 100%

percent of goldfish = 80%
