Question

At a concert 20% of the people are wearing black dresses or suits 1/4 are wearing navy 0.35 are wearing brown and the rest are wearing a variety of colors (other) . Write a percent fraction and decimal for each color clothing

Answer 1

Answer:

black dresses or suits = 20% or 0.2

navvy = 25% or 0.25

brown = 35% or 0.35

other = 20% or 0.20

Step-by-step explanation:

$\because x\%=\frac{x}{100}$

Given,

20% of the people are wearing black dresses or suits,

So, the people who are wearing black dresses or suit = $\frac{20}{100}$ = 0.2,

Now, 1/4 are wearing navy,

So, the percentage of people who wear navy colour = $\frac{1}{4}\times 100$ = 25%,

Also, 0.35 are wearing brown,

So, the percentage of the people who wear brown colour = $0.35\times 100$ = 35%

Thus, the percentage of rest of people = (100-20-25-35)%

= 20%

= $\frac{20}{100}$

= 0.2

Answer 2

Black 20% 1/5
navy 25% 1/4
Brown 35% 7/20
other 20% 1/5

hope it helps!!
