Question

Ayden had a goal of finishing painting at least 80% of the 500 square meters of a house's walls by today. He actually finished painting 415 square meters today. Did Ayden meet his goal? Why?

Answer 1

Answer:

Ayden meet his goal, because I paint 83% of the house that is greater than 80%

Step-by-step explanation:

to know the  part that he painted with respect to the total we have to divide the amount that he paint by the total amount

415ft² / 500ft² = 0.83

if we want it as a percentage we simply multiply it by 100

0.83 * 100 = 83%

now we compare the percentage that I paint with what was his goal

83% > 80%
