To solve this exercise you have to do as follows

The total exhibits in the zoo are 24, these represent the 100% of them.

If you want to know how many of those represent the 75% of the exhibits, mutiply 24 by 75 and divide it by 100:


(24\cdot75)/(100)=\text{ 18}

18 exhibits represent 75%, i.e. 18 exhibits at the zoo featured birds
