A water park sold 39 child tickets and 36 adult tickets. What percentage of the tickets sold were child tickets?

39 / 36 = 108.333333333333%

Step-by-step explanation:

A fraction consists of two numbers and a fraction bar:

39/36

The number above the bar is the numerator: 39

The number below the bar is the denominator: 36

Divide the numerator by the denominator to get fraction's value:

Val = 39 ÷ 36

Introduction. Percent, p%

'Percent (%)' means 'out of one hundred':

p% = p 'out of one hundred',

p% = p/100 = p ÷ 100.

Calculate fraction's value.

Divide the numerator by the denominator to get fraction's value:

39/36 =

39 ÷ 36 ≈

1.083333333333333

Note:

100/100 = 100 ÷ 100 = 100% = 1

Multiply a number by the fraction 100/100,

... and its value doesn't change.

Calculate the percent value:

1.083333333333333 =

1.083333333333333 × 100/100 =

(1.083333333333333 × 100)/100 ≈

108.333333333333/100 =

108.333333333333% ≈

108.33%;

In other words:

1) Calculate fraction's value.

2) Multiply that number by 100.

3) Add the percent sign % to it.
