Question

At a swim meet 20 medals were a warded. Four were gold metals 45% of the metals were silver the rest were bronze. What percent of the medals awarded were bronze

Answer 1

Answer:

35%

Step-by-step explanation:

To figure out the percentage of bronze medals, we must figure out the percentages of the gold and silver medals first.

We already know that 45% of the medals were silver.

We know that 4 of the 20 medals were gold.

4/20 as a percentage would be 20/100, or 20%.

So, 20% of the medals were gold, and 45% of them were silver.

45% + 20% = 65%

100% - 65% = 35%

So, 35% of the medals awarded were bronze.
