Step by step explanation:

If in her family 3 of them do not like roller coasters and there are a total of 5, then there are 2 who do like it.

We can write the following proportion:


(x)/(100)=(2)/(5)

There are 2 out of 5 who like it and we want to find the percentage:


x=(2\cdot100)/(5)=(200)/(5)=40

Answer:

40%
