In the past year, Martina watched 18 movies that she thought were very good. She watched 45 movies over the whole year. Of themovies she watched, what percentage did she think were very good?

Answer 1

Martina watched 18 movies that she thought were very good

Number of movies that are good = 18

She watched 45 movies over the whole year

Number of movies she watched over a year = 45

Percentage did she think were very good = Number of movies that are good/ Total number of movies x 100

`\begin{gathered} \text{ Percentage of movies that are good = }\frac{Number\text{ of movies that are good}}{Total\text{ number of movies}}*100 \\ \text{ Percentage of movies that are good =}(18)/(45)*100 \\ \text{ Percentage of movies that are good }=\text{ }(2)/(5)*100 \\ \text{ Percentage of movies that are good = }40\text{ \%} \end{gathered}`

So, Percentage did she think were very good is 40%

Answer : percentage did she think were very good is 40%
