Answer: 7.5 % of the trip has been traveled.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Total distance to be traveled = 2000 miles

Distance already traveled = 150 miles

To find the percentage of the trip traveled:


\text {percentage of the trip traveled}}=\frac{\text {Distance already traveled}}{\text {Total distance to be traveled}}* 100


text {percentage of the trip traveled}}=(150)/(2000)* 100=7.5%

Thus 7.5 % of the trip has been traveled.
