About 11% - I first subtracted 250 from 282, to get 32. I then did 32/282 to get .11.... You round that out to about 11%

Answer:

  3/4; 1/4, 1/4, 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

The intent here is to let you demonstrate your understanding that multiplication by an integer is the same as repeated addition.

Your knowledge of fractions tells you ...

  \dfrac{1}{4}\times3=\dfrac{3}{4}

The factor of 3 means this is equivalent to adding 1/4 a total of 3 times:

  \dfrac{1}{4}\times3=\dfrac{1}{4}+\dfrac{1}{4}+\dfrac{1}{4}
