Keesha keeps track of the fiber she eats to make sure she gets enough each day. Her breakfast contains 8 grams of fiber and her recommended daily amount is 25 grams per day. Keesha wants to know what percent of her daily amount of fiber she has at breakfast.
amount of breakfest (g) 8 blank
total amount (g) 25 100
To find the percentage of her daily amount of fiber Keesha has at breakfast, we need to set up a proportion:
(8 grams / 25 grams) = (x / 100)
Cross multiply to solve for x:
25x = 8 * 100
25x = 800
x = 32
So, Keesha has 32% of her daily amount of fiber at breakfast.
so wat goes above 100
I apologize for the error in my previous response. Let's correct that:
To find the percentage of her daily amount of fiber Keesha has at breakfast, we can set up the following proportion:
(8 grams / 25 grams) = (x / 100)
Cross multiply to solve for x:
25x = 8 * 100
25x = 800
x = 800 / 25
x = 32
Keesha has 32% of her recommended daily fiber intake at breakfast.
