Given the statement:
A 64-ounce bottle of orange juice has 48 ounces of water.
Determine the percentage of orange juice in the water bottle.
Solution:
In order to determine the percentage of orange juice in the water bottle, we simply needed to divide 48 ounces by 64 ounces.
= 48/64
= 0.75
In converting a percentage into decimal, divide the percentage by 100, hence in converting a decimal to percentage, multiply the percentage by 100.
= (0.75)(100)
= 75%
Final answer:
= 75%
