Question

If there were 30 questions on a test, and John got 24 of the correct, what is the percentage of the number of questions John got correct?

Answer 1

Answer: he got 80/100 or 80% right

Explanation:

24/30 = 12/15

12/15 as a percent:

100/15 = 6.66666666666667

12 x 6.66666666667

15 x 6.66666666667

= 80/100 or 80%
