Question

Answer 1

Answer:

78%

Step-by-step explanation:

a percentage is equivalent to a number over 100.

43% is 43/100

72% is 72/100

87% is 87/100

etc.

to find the percentage of students who said their favorite color is red, we need to set up a cross-multiplication equation

390/500 = ?/100

390 times 100 is 39000

39000/500 = 78

78% of the students said their favorite color is red
