The fraction or division problem becomes the # right/the total number of problems=96/120=0.8 This is a DECIMAL, so to get a PERCENT you need to MULTIPLY by 100. 80% correct is the right answer.

You would divide the small number by the big to get a decimal from which u simply multiply by 109 to get a percentage so
96 divided by 120=0.8 and simply multiply by 100 to get a percentage which is also 80% that so now hope this helps :)
