Leah has a 22 ounce coffee. she drinks 7 ounces. enter the percentage of ounces Leah has left of her coffee. round your answer to the nearest hundredth.

Answer 1

The percentage of ounces Leah has left of her coffee is 68.18%.

Explanation:

The decrease percentage is computed using the formula:

`\text{Decrease}\%=\frac{\text{Original amount - Decrease}}{\text{Original amount}}* 100`

It is provided that Leah originally had 22 ounce coffee.

Then she drinks 7 ounces of coffee.

Decrease = 7 ounces

Original = 22 ounces

Compute the percentage of ounces Leah has left of her coffee as follows:

`\text{Decrease}\%=\frac{\text{Original amount - Decrease}}{\text{Original amount}}* 100`

`=(22-7)/(22)* 100\\\\=(15)/(22)* 100\\\\=68.1818182\%\\\\\approx 68.18\%`

Thus, the percentage of ounces Leah has left of her coffee is 68.18%.
