Question

13 out of the 25 employees at the sports shop are part-time employees. What percentage of the employees at the sports shop work part-time. Write your answer using a percentage sign (%).

Answer 1

52%

Explanation:

13/25 = .52

To change a decimal to a percent, multiply the decimal by 100%

.52 x 1005 = 52%

This makes sense because half of 25 is 12.5 which would be 50% and 13 is just a little more than 12.5

Answer 2

52%

Explanation:

13/25 x 100 = 52%
