Question

What percentage of the pieces was he missing if he had 250 puzzle pieces and was missing 15 What percentage of the pieces was he missing

Answer 1

Percentage of missed puzzle pieces = 6%

Explanation:

Total number of puzzle pieces = 250

Missed puzzle pieces = 15

Percentage of the missing puzzle pieces =
`\frac{\text{Missed puzzle pieces}}{\text{Total number of puzzle pieces}}* 100`

=
`(15)/(250)* 100`

= 15 × 0.4

= 6%

Therefore, percentage of missed puzzle pieces = 6%
