Question

Sam has a total score of 500 on a game, compared to the maximum possible score of 1200.

Write this proportion as a percentage, correct to the nearest integer.

Answer 1

So for this all you have to do is put 500 over 1200 like this: 500/1200 and then divide 500 by 1200 to get a decimal which would be .416 .To get the percentage you have to multiply by 100 and get 41.6%. They want the nearest integer so the answer would be about 42% :)
