Answer: 133.33%

Explanation:

Given : Maggie's goal was to collect 60 canned goods for a food drive.

She actually collected 80.

Then, the percent of her goal reached by her is given by :-


\frac{\text{ Number of canned goods collected}}{\text{Her goal}}*100\\\\=(80)/(60)*100=133.333333333\approx133.33\%

Hence, Maggie reached 133.33% of her goal.
