Question

At doggy daycare, there are 75 dogs. Of these dogs, 6 have gray fur. What percentage of dogs at the daycare have gray fur?

Answer 1

8% of dogs have gray fur

Explanation:

Figure out what your total is --> 75 dogs

What part has gray fur --> 6 dogs

Equation:

`(part)/(whole) =(6 dogs)/(75 dogs) =0.08`

In order to make it into a percentage from a decimal, multiply by 100.

`0.08 * 100 = 8`
