Question

A basket contains 56 mangoes out of which 14 are rotten. find the percentage of the mangoes that are in good condition?

Answer 1

75%

Explanation:

56-14=42, so 42 is the number of mangoes that are still in good condition. To find the percentage of 42/56 use this equation:

42/56=x/100

cross multiply to get:

4200=56x

divide 4200 by 56:

x=75
