Question

Orlando eats 5 out of 8 pieces of his pizza. What percent of his pizza does Orlando eat?

Answer 1

In order to find the percent of the pizza Orlando eat, we just need to divide the number of pieces he ate by the total number of pieces, and then put the result in percentage:

$\frac{5}{8}=0.625=62.5\text{\%}$

So Orlando ate 62.5% of the pizza.
