Question

Suppose your degree requires 61 credits and you have completed 45 of them.  What percent of the required credits have you completed?

Irene R. · Accepted Answer

First you can represent the credits completed as a fraction: 45

61

This fraction can be written in decimal form as: 0.7377

To convert this decimal value to a percent, multiply by 100: 0.7377 • 100 = 73.77 % of the credits completed
