Answer:

Interphase: 55.56%

Prophase: 27.78%

Metaphase: 8.33%

Anaphase: 5.56%

Telophase: 2.78%

Explanation:

All you need to do is follow the instructions. To get the percentage, all you need to do is divide the part by the whole then multiply it by 100%.


(Part)/(Whole)* 100\%

Now let's take your problem:

Number of cells in interphase:

20 this is the part and the whole would be the total cells, which is 36. Now we insert that into our equation:


(20)/(36)* 100\%=0.5556*100\%=55.56\%

So now we apply the same to the rest:

Prophase:


(10)/(36)* 100\%=0.2778*100\%=27.78\%

Metaphase:


(3)/(36)* 100\%=0.0833*100\%=8.33\%

Anaphase:


(2)/(36)* 100\%=0.0556*100\%=5.56\%

Telophase:


(1)/(36)* 100\%=0.0278*100\%=2.78\%
