Question

At the end of the first school day, Mr. Davies, a first grade teacher, inspected his classroom crayons. 2 of the 200 crayons were broken. What percent of the crayons were NOT broken?

​

Answer 1

99%

Explanation:

What percent of 200 was not broken?

Let's use P to represent the percent. 198 were not broken, because 2 were broken and 200 - 2 = 198.

p200 = 198

p = 0.99

99%
