To find the percentage you have to divide the part over the whole then multiply by 1000, in this example we want to find out the percentage corresponding to the defective pens.
No. Defective pens= 50
No. Pens = 1000
^ this means all pens defective and none defective since we went to see what proportion they make out of the WHOLE

part / whole *100= defective pens%

50/1000 * 100 = defective pens%
Defective pens = 5%

So, 5% of all pens in that factory are defective.

The blueprint for a new swimming pool uses the scale 3/4
beks73 [17]

Answer:

3 in wide by 4.5 in long.

Step-by-step explanation:

3/4=0.75

I divided the given dimensions by two, so I could multiply .75 by the sets of twos instead of dividing 3/4 by two and multiplying that by 12 and 8.

.74 x 4 = 3

.75 x 6 = 4.5
