Question

Find the percentage of boxes which are not coloured and also find its fractional representation?

Answer 1

Total number of boxes = 25.
Total number of boxes not coloured = 16.

$\text{Fraction of boxes which are not}\text{coloured}$

$=\frac{\text{Number of boxes not coloured}}{\text{Total number of boxes}}$

$=\frac{16}{25}$

$\text{Converting the fraction into percentage, we get}\frac{16}{25}\times 100=64\%$
