Question

What percent does each investment category represent? transportation $5.2 billion, chemicals $3.4 billion, finicaials $8.1 billion, and manufacturing $15.6 billion

Answer 1

Percent = (Part/Whole) * (100%)

 

The "Whole" is the sum of all the "Parts" (categories):

 

Whole = $5.2 billion + $3.4 billion + $8.1 billion + $15.6 billion = $32.3 billion

 

For transportation, then:

 

Transportation % = ($5.2/32.3)*(100%) = 16.1%

 

Can you do the rest?
