Question

Forty five percent of middle schools have a horse as a mascot. If there are 420 middle schools how many have a horse as a mascot ?

Answer 1

189
Because you have to turn it into a percentage in order to know how many per 1 percent. So multiply 420 by 100 and get 4.2 then you multiply it by 45 and you get 189 so 179 schools have a horse mascot
