Question

Fred is putting up 160 feet of fence in his yard. He has already put up 60% of the fencing. How many

feet has he put up?

Answer 1

96 feet

Explanation:

total number of feet = 160 feet

the total number he put up is x

but the percentage of what he put up is 60

And x is equal to 60% of total

therefore x is equal to 60/100*160

60/100 * 160

= 96
