Question

PLEASE HELP ASAP! I REALLY NEED HELP!

At the craft store, Paul bought a bag of blue and orange marbles. He received 30 marbles in all. 27 of the marbles were blue. What percentage of the marbles were blue? Write your answer using a percent sign (%)

Answer 1

The answer to your question is 90%

Answer 2

90%

Explanation:

First divide the number of blue marbles by the total number of marbles to determine the ratio of blue marbles to total marble, then multiply that result by 100% to determine the % of blue marbles

He has 27 blue marbles out of 30 marbles, so he has...

27/30(100%) = 0.9(100%) = 90%
