Question

Susie has read 52 pages of an 80- page book. What is the percentage of the pages that susie has not read?

Answer 1

She hasn't read 35% of the book

Explanation:

1st way: Since 80 pages represent 100%

52 pages represent 100 * 52 / 80 = 65% pages read

100 - 65 = 35 pages page not read.

2nd way: 80 - 52 = 28 pages not read

28 pages represent 100 * 28 / 80 = 35% pages not read

Answer 2

35%

Explanation:

52/80=0.65

0.65x100=65

65% is the percent that she has read.

100%-65%= 35%

She has not read 35% of the pages.
