Question

A water park sold 14 child tickets and 6 adult tickets. What percentage of

the tickets sold were child tickets? *

Answer 1

70 percent

Explanation:

14+6= 20

20 is the total amount of tickets!

out of those 20 tickets 14 are children:

14/20

14/20 in a persentage is 70%

Answer 2

total tickets sold :
14 + 6 = 20

fraction of child tickets sold = 14/20

then, we convert this fraction to %.

14/20 = 70/100
( multiply by 5 )

percentage = 70%
