Start with the plane...65% of 1800 would be 1800 x 0.65 = 1170
\n" ); document.write( "Then the train ...20% of 1800 would be 1800 x 0.20 = 360\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "add 1170 + 360 = 1530 now subtract 1530 from 1800\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "so: 1880 - 1530 = 270\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Therefore there will be 270 km traveled by road.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "I apologize..it is in Kilometers.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "As for the other question: to find a percentage, you divide the number by the total and multiple by 100.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "So 140 divided by 2000 = .07 then times 100 = 7%\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Subtract 7% from 100% and you get 93% there fore 93% it getting through.
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
