Step-by-step explanation:

Given

• Bikini styles Swimwear = 28

• Other types of Swimsuit = 42

Let 'x' be the percentage of the swimsuit styles are bikinis.

so

x% of 42 = 28

$\frac{x}{100}\times \:42=28$

$42x = 100 \times 28$

$42x = 2800$

divide both sides by 42

$\frac{42x}{42}=\frac{2800}{42}$

simplify

$\:\:x\:\approx \:66.66\:\%$

Therefore, Approximately 66.66% of swimsuit styles are bikinis.
