Question
Jerry, an electrician, worked 7 months out of the year. What percent of the year did he work? (Round answer to the nearest hundredth)
- 58
- 59
- 58.33
- 50
Hint:
1. When a certain quantity is divided into 100 equal parts and a certain part of it is to be expressed in terms of the whole quantity, that portion is called as a percent, represented with a % sign.
2. Percentage working time = Number of months spent working/ Total number of months in a year * 100.
The correct answer is: 58.33
Given-
Number of months spent working = 7
To find-
Percentage working time
Solution-
We know that-
Percentage working time = Number of months spent working/ Total number of months in a year * 100
∴ Percentage working time = 7 / 12 * 100
∴ Percentage working time = 58.33
Final Answer- Option 'c' i.e. '58.33' is the correct answer to the given question.
