Greetings!

Answer:

20%

Explanation:

Firstly, you need to know the total amount:

3 + 12 = 15

So in total there is 15 and three of them are rainsins.

Now, simply divide 100 by 15 to find the percent of one:

100 ÷ 15 = 6.666.....

Then multiply this by 3 (amount of raisins):

6.666... x 3 = ≅ 20

So she has 20% raisins!


Hope this helps!
