A random sample of dogs at different animal shelters in a city shows that 11 of the 70 dogs are puppies. The city's animal shelters collectively house 2,240 dogs each year. About how many dogs in all of the city's animal shelters are puppies?

This is how I would solve this problem;
2,240÷70=32
32×11=352
352÷2,240=.1571
.1571× 100 ≈16%
Also for a shorter way;
11÷70=.1571
.1571×100≈16%
Tell me if this helps!!
