Q. This morning, Tanvi took a history test. She got

16

out of

40

problems right. What percentage did Tanvi get right?

\newline

Write your answer using a percent sign (%).

\newline

_____

Identify Problems: Identify the total number of problems and the number of problems Tanvi got right. $\newline$ Total problems: $40$ $\newline$ Correct answers: $16$ $\newline$ Use the percentage formula: $(\text{Number of correct answers} / \text{Total number of problems}) \times 100$ .
Use Percentage Formula: Substitute the values into the formula. $(\frac{16}{40}) \times 100$
Substitute Values: Calculate $16$ divided by $40$ . $\newline$ $16 / 40 = 0.4$
Calculate Division: Multiply $0.4$ by $100$ to find the percentage. $\newline$ $0.4 \times 100 = 40\%$
