Answer:

72.9%

Explanation:

Percent just mean part divided by whole, then multiplies by 100

You could think of part as a slices of pie taken, and whole as the how many slices were there originally

so if your whole pie has 48 slices but 35 were eaten the percentage eaten would be 35 divided by 48 which gives you 0.729

now multiply this by 100 and you'll get 72.9%
