<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Given that there was a total of 30 computers and the computer lab is removing 3 broken computers and adding 13 wireless devices
Now we can first find out total number of computers and devices in lab
total number of computers and devices in lab = 30 computers - 3 + 13 wireless devices
total number of computers and devices in lab = 30 - 3 + 13 = 40
So there are 40 computers and wireless devices in lab
<em><u>To find: what percent of the lab are wireless devices</u></em>
So we have to find what percent of 40 is 13
Let "a" be the required percent
a % of 40 = 13
32.5 % of of lab are wireless devices
