Answer 2

There are 75 players on a football team and 45 of the players wear Nike cleats. What percent of the team wears Nike cleats?

The fraction
`(45)/(75)` represents the number of players that wear Nike cleats out of all the players on the team.

To find out what percent of the team wears Nike cleats, we can turn the fraction
`(45)/(75)` into a percent.

We can reduce
`(45)/(75)` by dividing both the numerator and denominator by the Greatest Common Factor of 338 and 650 using 26.

338 ÷ 26 = 13

650 ÷ 26 = 25

The reduced fraction is
`(13)/(25)`.

13 ÷ 25 = 0.52

0.52 × 100 = 52%

Therefore, 52% of the football team wears Nike cleats.
