Question

Tiger cubs are around 2 years old when they leave their mothers. In the wild, tigers live about 11 years. About what percent of their lives do tigers spend with their mothers

Answer 1

18.18%

Explanation:

Cross-multiply

11 years ------------ 100% of life

2 years ------------- x% of life

11/2 = 100/x ===> 11x = 2*100 ===> 11x = 200 ===> x = 200/11 ===> x = 18.18%
