The Statue of Liberty is approximately 300 feet high, including the base upon

which the statue stands. If the base is 150 feet high, what percent of the total
height is the statue itself?

Answer:

The state itself is 50% of the total height.

Step-by-step explanation:

Well, if the height including the base is 300 ft, that'd mean the total height of the statue itself is (300-150) ft = 150 ft.

Thus, it is (150/300)*100% = 50% of the total height.
