Question

A fish tank that holds 80 gallons of water is 55% full. How many gallons are

in the tank now? PLZ HELP

Answer 1

55% of the fish tank is 44 gallons.

Explanation:

To solve this, you turn the 55% into a decimal, by dividing it by 100.

55 ÷ 100 = 0.55

You then multiply the whole capacity (80) by 0.55

80 x 0.55 = 44 gallons
