Question

Of the 24,400 working hours logged at a beauty salon last year, Beatrice worked 976 hours. What percentage of the total hours did Beatrice work?

Answer 1

Answer: 4% (or 4.1% when rounded to the nearest tenth or 4.08 % when rounded to the nearest hundredth)

Explanation:

First, you would need to put it into a fraction.

You have
`(996)/(24400)`.

When you divided it, you would get:

0.04081....

Then you have to multiply times 100 to get it into percent form. This gives you:

4.081%

Then, round as you please!

This is your answer!
