Question

This year Tammy watched 60 movies. She thought that 15 of them were very good. Of the movie she watched, what percentage did she rate as very good?

Answer 1

25%

Explanation:

She watched in total 60 movies. Out of that total, she rated 15 of them as very good. Thus, she rated 15/60 or 1/4 or a quarter of them as very good.

To convert 1/4 into a percentage, simply divide them and you get 0.25. The percentage is the first two digits after the decimal, which is 25%.
