A middle school took all of its 6th grade students on a field trip to see a play at a theatre that has 5000 seats. The students filled 4500 of the seats in the theatre. What percentage of the seats in the theatre were filled by the 6th graders on the trip?

Answer:

90%

Step-by-step explanation:

So, in order to get this answer, you must divide the amount of students that filled the theatre, which is 4,500, by the amount of seats at the theatre, which is 5,000. You can eliminate the two zeros at the end of each number, which will leave you with 45/50. 45 divided by 50 equals 0.9. You can then multiply 0.9 by 100, because of the 2 zeros eliminated earlier. This will leave you with 90%.
