Question 169560: I thank you in advance for your assistance. I have not done any problems in a while! the problem is:
Mr. Jones had to interview a total of 63 households in his assignment. He has already finished 28. what percentage of the households in his assignments has he finished? (round to the nearest tenth of a percent)

total= 63;
He has finished 28;
What we are asked to find is the percent - that is our variable = P
We have;
28 = 63P
divide each side by 63;
.4444=P
rounded to nearest tenth;
P=.4
