Question

There are 40 marbles in a bag if 14 if the marbles are red what percent of the marbles in the bag are red

Answer 1

$\frac{14}{40} \times 100\%=\frac{7 \times 2}{20 \times 2} \times 100\%=\frac{7}{20} \times 100\%=7 \times \frac{100}{20} \%=7 \times 5\%=35\%$

35% of the marbles are red.
