Question

About 21/25 of an apple is made up of water and about 17/20 of a plum is made up of water. find the percent of each fruit

Answer 1

Answer:

Apple:84%

Plum:85%

Step-by-step explanation:

I know this because to find an correct percent the denominator has to be 100.

So I multipled 21/25*4(because 25*4=100)=84/100, therefore the percent is 84.

You would do the same for the plum 17/20*5(5*20=100)=85/100, the percent is 85.
