Maggie is participating in her school reading challenge. She reads 80 books in 6 months. If 40 of the books are fiction, then what percent of the books that she read are fiction?

Respuesta :

Answer:

50%

Step-by-step explanation:

*In this question, the 6 does not matter*

If 40/80 books are fiction, and if you simplify that fraction, you get 1/2.

Percentages are just fancy fractions and decimals. 50% means 1/2.

Thus, the answer is 50%
