Question

The Elves were working when the head Elf came in and said there was only 2 weeks left (14 days) until Christmas. What percentage of the month was left before Christmas? (Hint: There are 31 days in December, and Christmas is on December 25th!)

a) 45.16%
b) 51.61%
c) 54.84%
d) 58.06%

Answer 1

To find the percentage of the month left before Christmas, divide the number of days left by the total number of days in the month and multiply by 100. The correct answer is 45.16%.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the percentage of the month left before Christmas, we need to divide the number of days left by the total number of days in the month and then multiply by 100. In this case, there are 14 days left and 31 total days in December:

Percentage = (14 / 31) * 100 = 45.16%

Therefore, the correct answer is 45.16%.
