There are 95 seats on a train. 19 of the seats are empty. What percentage of the seats on the train are empty?

Respuesta :

Your answer is 20%

To find any percentage, you write it as a fraction and then multiply by 100. In this case, we have 19/95.
19 x 5 = 95, which means that 19/95 = 1/5

1/5 as a decimal is 0.2, and 0.2 x 100 = 20%

If you’re allowed to use a calculator for this question, then you can just type in (19/95) x 100 into your calculator to get the answer.

I hope this helps!
