Question

Miguel has a garden that has an area of 300 square feet. If the corn in his garden covers 160 square feet, what percent of the garden is corn?

Im not sure of my answer but I got 5.33 and the 3 repeats

Answer 1

Im sorry if I'm wrong but I think it's 300+160=460

Answer 2

yes your correct but wrong

Explanation:

To find the area that's covered in corn you need to first write your fraction.

160/300

After you do that you have to turn it into a decimal.

.53333...

After that you need to turn it into a percent so your final answer will be....

53.333...%

BTW try looking to see if you need to round, normally it tells you to do that
