Question

Angel has an action figure collection of 300 action figures. He keeps 267 of the action figures on his wall. What percentage of Angel's action figure collection does he keep on his wall?

Answer 1

Answer:

89% of Angel's action figure collection keeps on his wall.

Step-by-step explanation:

Percentages

To calculate the X% of a quantity Y, we must multiply both numbers and divide by 100:

X% of Y = X * Y / 100

For example, 15% of 780 = 15 * 780 / 100 = 117

If we want to know what percentage is m with respect to n, we proceed as follows:

percentage = m / n * 100%

Anges has a 300 action figures collection, 267 of which are kept on his wall. Here m=267, n=300, thus:

percentage = 267 / 300 * 100% = 89%

89% of Angel's action figure collection keeps on his wall.
