Question

Duo makes 65% percent of his dumplings with vegetarian fillings. What fraction of Duo's dumplings have vegetarian fillings?

Answer 1

Answer:

$\frac{13}{20}$ fraction of Duo's dumplings have vegetarian fillings.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Duo makes 65% percent of his dumplings with vegetarian fillings.

To find : What fraction of Duo's dumplings have vegetarian fillings?

Solution :

We have given the percentage of  his dumplings with vegetarian fillings i.e. 65%.

Now, We required it in fraction.

So, $65\%=\frac{65}{100}$

Simplify fraction into simpler fraction,

$\frac{65}{100}=\frac{13}{20}$

Therefore, $\frac{13}{20}$ fraction of Duo's dumplings have vegetarian fillings.

Answer 2

Per cent means for every hundred, so we just put 65 into a fraction with 100. However, percents are already out of 100. So for every 100 dumplings, 65 are vegetarian.
