Maya is driving 120 miles to her grandmother's house. She drives 35% of the distance before stopping for lunch. How far does she
drive before lunch?
2 answers:
She drives 35% of the time before lunch.
= 35% of 120 miles.
= 35/100 * 120 . Simply cancel off each zero at the bottom and top.
= 35/10 * 12 = 3.5 * 12 = 42. Using your calculator.
So she drove 42 miles before lunch.
So basically
percent means partsout of 100
35%=35/100=0.35
'of' means multiply
35% of 120=0.35 times 120=42
answer is 42 miles
