Question

A clothing company that makes jacket finds out that 66 out of 75 jackets are undamaged. what percent of the jackets are damaged

Answer 1

12% of the jackets are damaged and 88% of them are not

Answer 2

Answer: 12%

Step-by-step explanation:

total no. of jackets = 75

no. of undamaged jackets = 66

let the percent of undamaged jackets be x

x% of 75 = 66

$\frac{x}{100}$  x 75 = 66

$\frac{3x}{4}$ = 66

x = $\frac{66}{3}$ x 4

x = 88%

therefore the percent of damaged jackets is 12% (100-88).
