Question

In Mr.Hernandez class 7 out of 20 students have an A what percent of the students in the class have an A

Answer 1

To figure this out, you set up the fraction

`\frac{\text{number that meet the criteria}}{\text{total possible number}}`

In this case, it's
`\frac{7 \text{ A's}}{20 \text{ total students}}`.

You then divide 7/20 = 0.35 and convert that decimal into a percent: 35%
