Question

Mr ABA class is making 200 origami cranes for an art project so far they have made 3/4 of the cranes

B. What percent of the cranes have they made?

Answer 1

Explanation:

To find the percentage of a fraction you divide the top by the bottom and multiply by 100. So 3/4 = 0.75 then 0.75 x 100 = 75%. Now you need to find 3/4ths or 75 percent of 200. An easy way to do this is find 1/4 of 200. So 200/4 = 50. Now you need 3/4 of 200, not just one fourth so multiply 50 by 3 to get 150. The class has made 150 cranes.
