Question

1. There are 15 pieces of fruit in a bowl and 6 of them are apples. What percentage of the pieces of fruit in the bowl are apples?

A. 0.06% B. 0.4% C. 6%
D. 40%

Answer 1

The correct answer is D: 40%.

Explanation:

To find the percentage of the pieces of fruit in the bowl that are apples, you need to divide the number of apples by the total number of pieces of fruit and then multiply the result by 100%.

So, you would do the following calculation: (6 apples / 15 pieces of fruit) * 100% = 40%.
