We are told that Julia keeps 255 masks on the wall and 45 on the display case, this means in total the number of masks she has is


255+45=300\text{masks}

The number of masks Julia keeps on the wall is 255 masks; therefore, the percentage of fo masks on the wall is


(255)/(300)*100
=85.\text{ }

Hence, Julia keeps 85% of her mask collection on her wall.
