Question

*DUE TODAY* ANSWER ASAP Olivia has read 40 pages of a 70 page book, 60 pages of an 85 page book and 43 of a 65 page book. What is the percentage of pages Olivia has not read? PLEASE GIVE ME A STEP BY STEP EXPLANATION PLEASE!

Answer 1

STEP 1: calculate the amount of pages not read per book and put them into a fraction ( e.g for the first one 30/70 pages not read)

STEP2: turn all of the fractions you have just made into percentages ( divide the numerator by the denominator then, times by 100)

STEP 3: add all of the percentages up and put the sum of them all over 300 ( e.g each percentage added up / 300 )

STEP 4: turn that fraction you just made back into a percentage then that should be your answer!!!

If you need any more help just ask me!
