A deli owner sold 90 sandwiches in one day. Of those sandwiches, 36 were pastrami. Write and solve an equation to show what percent of sandwiches sold were pastrami.
This is it because 36/90 x 100/1 equals 3,600/90. 3,600/90 divided by 90 equals 40/1. So, you convert that into a whole #, and that whole # is 40. So, 40% of the sandwiches were pastrami.
