Question

A is what percent of b a= 2 ft b= 1 yd

Answer 1

66 2/3

Explanation:

Answer 2

`66(2)/(3)\%`

Explanation:

Remember that

`1\ yd=3\ ft`

we have

`a=2\ ft\\b=1\ yd=1(3)=3\ ft`

In this problem

b represent the 100%

so

using proportion

Find out what percent of b represent a

Let

x -----> the percentage of b

`(3)/(100)=(2)/(x)\\\\x=100(2)/3\\\\x=(200)/(3)\%`

Convert to mixed number

`(200)/(3)\%=(198)/(3)+(2)/(3)=66(2)/(3)\%`
