Answer 1

Answer:

For the first question, the answer would be 43.2%; if you want to round further, it would be 43%.

For the second question, the answer would be 65.9%; if you want to round further, it would be 66%.

Step-by-step explanation:

1st question:

315/220 = 1.4318181....

1.4318*100 = 143.18

143.18 - 100 = 43.18

2nd question:

315 + 50 = 365

365/220 = 1.659090....

1.6590*100 = 165.90

165.90 - 100 = 65.90
