Question

Craig just finished reading 120 pages of his history assignment if the assignment is 125 Pages what percent has Craig read so far?

Answer 1

96% is the answer 100%/x%=125/120
(100/x)*x=(125/120)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.04166666667*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.04166666667) to get x
100/1.04166666667=x
96=x
x=96
