Answer 2

The percent as a mixed number in simplest form is written as
`66(2)/(3)\%`.

Explanation:

Total reservation for one week is

`T=5+3+4+7+26+30+9=84`

The total reservation for Friday or Saturday is

`R=26+30=56`

The formula for percentage is

`P=\frac{\text{total reservation for Friday or Saturday}}{\text{Total reservation for one week}}* 100`

`P=(56)/(84)* 100`

`P=(2)/(3)* 100`

`P=(200)/(3)`

`P=66+(2)/(3)`

`P=66(2)/(3)`

Therefore the percent as a mixed number in simplest form is written as
`66(2)/(3)\%`.
