Question

Sam scored 17 out of 20 in her test, her % score is...... what A 17% B 85% C 80% D 0.85%​

Answer 1

the answer is 85%

Explanation:

To find the percentage you will divide:

17 divided by 20 = o.85

Answer 2

B. 85%

Explanation:

in order to find out her percentage, you want to do 17/20

the reason we do 17/20 and not 20/17 is because 20/17 gives you 1.1, which is both not an option and does not make logical sense

17/20 = 0.85

in order to make this a percentage, multiply 0.85 by 100

0.85 x 100 = 85

so your answer is 85%, or B
