Question

Patty has 123 CDs in her music collection. Of the 123 CDs, 27 are country music. Estimate the percent of patty's CD that are country music CDs. (Plz tell it step by step)

Answer 1

Let's set up a proportion. 

 27          x
___       ___

123       100

Solve for x.

27 x 100 = 2700
2700/123= about 22%

I'm not 100% positive, but I hope this helps! :)
