If a pie is divided into 20 parts, what percent is one part of the whole pie?
1/20 = 5/100
so, ...
To find out what percent one part of the pie is, you need to divide the number of parts you are interested in (which is one) by the total number of parts the pie is divided into (which is 20).
1 divided by 20 equals 0.05.
To convert this decimal value to a percentage, you multiply it by 100.
0.05 multiplied by 100 equals 5.
Therefore, one part of the whole pie is 5% of the total pie.
To find the percentage of one part of a whole pie, you need to divide the number of parts you're interested in by the total number of parts and then multiply by 100. In this case, since the pie is divided into 20 parts, you want to find the percentage of one part.
So, the calculation would be: (1 / 20) * 100.
Dividing 1 by 20 gives you 0.05. Multiplying 0.05 by 100 gives you 5.
Therefore, one part of the whole pie is 5% of the total.
