Answer: 20%

Step by Step Explanation:

Start by subtracting 519.29 from 649, you would get 129.8

Then take 129.8 and divide that by 649.

You get 0.2 which equals 20%

Tip: To find the percent of a fraction you divide the numerator by the denominator. For example, if you want to find the percent on a test, and you get a 8/10 you just divide 8 by 10. Which obviously equals 80.
