Question

2 tons is what percent of 206 tons?

Answer 1

0.971%

Explanation:

A percentage is simply a ratio to a whole. If we assume 206 tons to be the whole, we can say this:

2 tons / 206 tons == 0.00971

And the percentage is out of 100 so:

0.00971 * 100 == 0.971 %

Hence, 2 tons is 0.971% of 206 tons.

Cheers.
