Katie bought some flour. She used three eighths of it to bake bread. What percent of the flour is left?

Answer 1

Hi Ella,

Katie used three eights (3/8) of her flour. Therefore, the remaining amount of the unused flour will be

1 - (3/8) => 8/8 - 3/8 = 5/8

To convert it into percentage, you can divide 100 to 8 and then multiply it by 5:

100/8*5 = 62.5 %

Result : 62.5%
