Question

Aiyana reads 147 pages of a book. She completes 70% of the book. How many pages does Aiyana still have left to read?

Answer 1

44 pages

Explanation:

To calculate 70% of 147, divide 147 by 100 to find the number of pages per 1%, then mulitply by 70 to find 70%

(147 ÷ 100) x 70 = 102.9 = 103 (rounded to the nearest integer)

To calculate how many pages are left, subtract 102.9 from 147:

147 - 103 = 44
