Answer:
13%
15%
41%
31%
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the percentage one amount is out of another amount, divide the smaller amount by the bigger amount. You will end up with a decimal (0.xy where x is the 10% place and y is the 1% place).
For example: to find the percentage that 39 is out of 300 students, we divide 39 by 300. This gives us the decimal 0.13. Written as a percentage, that is 13%.
We can do this for all of them.
Here is the math for each one:
39 ÷ 300 = 0.13 → 13%
45 ÷ 300 = 0.15 → 15%
123 ÷ 300 = 0.41 → 41%
93 ÷ 300 = 0.31 → 31%
Once you have all these decimals, you might choose to check your work by adding them up. They should at up to 1.00, or 100%. In this case, they do, so we know these answers are correct.
I hope this helps. Please let me know if you have questions.
