Options for question 3

Show the answer and explanation
CorrectNot quiteAnswer D

Correct answer: D

Explanation

  1. Fraction right = 78\frac{7}{8}.

  2. 78×100=87.5%\frac{7}{8} \times 100 = 87.5\%.

Worth noting

Know by heart: 18=12.5%\frac{1}{8} = 12.5\%, so 78=7×12.5%=87.5%\frac{7}{8} = 7 \times 12.5\% = 87.5\%. 12.5% is the share he got wrong.
