Question

there are 27 more green cars than black cars in the parking lot. What percentage of the cars in the parking lot are green? What percent are black?

Answer 1

Answer:

Black is 3.57%

Green is 96.43%

Step-by-step explanation:

Since 27 green than black

Let the black car be b

So green cars which 27 more than black means 27b

So to calculate the percentage of green we will have

27b/27b+b ×100

27b/28b ×100

Let's eliminate the b

27/28×100

2700/28

96.43%

So let's calculate for Black

b/27b+b ×100

b/28b ×100

Eliminate b

1/28 ×100

100/28

3.57%

Therefore the percentage for Black is 3.57% and for green is 96.43%
