Math Quiz: 68%

Spelling Quiz: 80%

He scored higher on the:

Step-by-step explanation:

17 divided by 25= 0.68  times 100 = 68%

16 divided by 20= 0.8  times 100 = 80%

Jake scored more on the spelling quiz. 80% is more than 68% so therefore he scored more on the quiz. To find 80% and 68%, you can use a percent of proportion or divide and multiply by 100.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the percent of a score, you divide.

17/25 (division) = 0.68

0.68 is a decimal so to make it a percent you multiply by 100 = 68%

Or you can do it with fractions:

17/25 = ?/100: 68

16/20 = 0.8

Again, 0.8 times 100 = 80%

Or you can do it with fractions:

16/20 = ?/100: 80

He scored more on the spelling quiz, I hope this helps (justification on the answer).
