Question

David is running a 500 m sprint. so far he has run 300 m. what fraction of the spirit does he have left?

Answer 1

40 percent is left to run

Answer 2

Answer:

200/500=2/5

40%

Step-by-step explanation:

If the total distance of the sprint is 500m and he's already run 300m, so subtract 500-300 which equals 200.

Then put it in fraction form 500 being the total distance needing to be traveled in all will be your denominator and 200 being the distance left to be traveled will be your numerator. 200/500

Then simplify=200/500 divided by 100/100 equals 2/5.

Then to get it to a percentage divide 2 by 5 which equals  .40

Then convert to a percentage 40%
