47%.


Assemble a fraction: 235/500.

Solve: 0.47


Move the decimal two places to the right to get a percentage.


Then you get 47%

The answer is 47%

If you take the amount of money raised ($235) and put it over the total amount of money ($500), 235/500 will result in the decimal 0.47, and you can change that to a percentage by moving the decimal two places to the right
