The students in Mabel's class got to choose between pizza and burgers for the celebration on the last day of school. 12 students picked the pizza. If there are 40 students in all in Mabel's class, what percentage of the students picked the pizza?

Respuesta :

Answer:

30%

Step-by-step explanation:

The percentage of something can be calculated by dividing that number by the total amount. In this scenario, you divide 12 by 40

12/40 = 0.3

Or, you could do it the way without doing the math and simplifying to make it easier

12/40 = 6/20 = 3/10 = 0.3 = 30%
