If someone could help with this problem so I can understand how to perform the actions.

In the past year, Carmen watched 51 movies that she thought were very good. She watched 60 movies over the whole year. Of the movies she watched, what percentage did she think were very good?
I want to thank you for your time.

Divide 51 by 60 and multiply by 100.

100(51/60) = 85%

Thank you Ms. Sue. Happy New Year.

You're welcome, Mary Ann. Happy New Year to you, too.

To find the percentage of movies Carmen thought were very good, we can use the following formula:

( Number of movies Carmen thought were very good / Total number of movies Carmen watched ) * 100

Now let's plug in the given numbers:

Number of movies Carmen thought were very good = 51
Total number of movies Carmen watched = 60

Substituting these values into the formula, we have:

(51/60) * 100 = 85%

So, Carmen thought that 85% of the movies she watched were very good.

You're welcome! Don't hesitate to ask if you have any further questions.
