Question

In a race, 41 out of the 50 bicyclists finished in less than 38 minutes. What percent of bicyclists finished the race in less than 38 minutes? Write an equivalent fraction to find the percent. ​

Answer 1

For left put 2 on each
On the box over 100 put 82, and put 82 in the box on the right

Answer 2

To find the percent, you will double everything because you only have 50 as the base and doubled its 100. 41 times 2 it’s equal to 82 so 82% of the bicyclists finished in less than 38 minutes. As a fraction it would be 41 over 50.
