You have the following information:

- John bought 15 cookies

- John ate 3 of the 15 cookies

In order to calculate the percentage associated to the 3 cookies John ate, respect to the total cookies, you proceed as follow:


(3)/(15)(100)=(300)/(15)=20

Hence, John ate 30% of the total number of cookies.
