Question

At Emmy's Swimwear, there are 28 bikini styles and 42 other types of swimsuit. What percentage of the swimsuit styles are bikinis?

Answer 1

Approximately 66.66% of swimsuit styles are bikinis.

Explanation:

Given

• Bikini styles Swimwear = 28

• Other types of Swimsuit = 42

Let 'x' be the percentage of the swimsuit styles are bikinis.

so

x% of 42 = 28

`(x)/(100)* \:42=28`

`42x = 100 * 28`

`42x = 2800`

divide both sides by 42

`(42x)/(42)=(2800)/(42)`

simplify

`\:\:x\:\approx \:66.66\:\%`

Therefore, Approximately 66.66% of swimsuit styles are bikinis.
