SOCCER PRACTICE QUESTION

Question

A soccer game is 90 minutes long. 36 minutes have passed. What percentage of the game has passed? (Please add how you solved it)

Answer 1

divide 36 by 90

36/90 of the game has passed

36/90 = 4/10 = 40/100 = 40%

36 and 90 are both divisible by 9

36/9 = 4, 90/9 = 10

36/90= 4/10 = 0.4 multiply by 100 to get the percentage equivalent 0.40 x 100 = 40%
