Question

In Alessandro's class, 5 students live in Oakdale.There are 20 students in Alessandro's class. What percent of the students live in Oakdale

Answer 1

If 5 students live in Oakdale, and there are 20 students, then 5/20 students live in Oakdale. If we multiply the numerator and denominator by 5 we get 25/100.
Therefore our answer is 25%.

Answer 2

When you have 5/20 you just multiply the numerator and denominator by each other and Then you get 25/100 and I know that 25 is equal to 25%

And if you want to check you answer you can do this

25% + 25% + 25% + 25%= 100%
