Answer 1

56%

Explanation:

So 25 orders of flowers were sold, and 14 of them contained roses. So we know that 14 out of the 25 orders contained roses. You can turn that sentence into an expression:
`(14)/(25)`.
`(14)/(25)` is in fraction form, but the question is asking for percentages.
`(14)/(25)` in percentage form is easy to find. All you need to do is get the denominator to 100 and then whatever the numerator is, that is your percentage.
`(14)/(25)` will be turned into
`(56)/(100)`. The numerator is 56, thus the percentage is 56%.
