Question

MaryAnne has 90 quilt squares. She plans to use 32 of them to make a quilt. What percent of her quilt square stock is she using? List your answer as a percent rounded to the nearest tenth.

Answer 1

Percentage = ( number used / total number) x 100

32/90 = 0.3555

0.3555 x 100 = 35.56%

Rounded to nearest tenth = 35.6%
