Question

On Thursday, a restaurant serves iced tea to 35 of it's 140 customers. What percent of the customers order iced tea?

Answer 1

140 divided by 35 would be 4%.

Answer 2

Answer:

25%

Step-by-step explanation:

The percent of customers that ordered iced tea can be calculated using the following expression.

$\frac{number\ of\ customers\ who\ ordered\ iced\ tea}{total\ number\ of\ customers} \times 100\%$

From a total of 140 customers, 35 customers ordered iced tea. The corresponding percent is:

$\frac{35}{140} \times 100\% = 25\%$
