Example Question #423 : Numbers And Operations

At Creek High School 95% of the students buy their lunch from the snack bar, 4% of the students bring their own lunch and 1% of the students do not eat lunch at school. What is the percent of students who bring their lunch written as a decimal?

Possible Answers:

0.95

0.4

None of the other answers

0.04

0.1

Correct answer:

0.04

Explanation:

Every percent is a ratio of a number to 100 and this ratio can be written in fraction form.

In this case, 4% would be the same as

$\small \fn_cm \frac{4}{100}$ (The percent sign is a hidden denominator of 100)

Using place-value knowledge, the reading of the fraction gives the decimal number format.

$\small \fn_cm \frac{4}{100}$ is read as "four hundredths" which gives the place for the 4 in the decimal number (namely the hundredths place).

0 - there are no ones

0.0 - there are no tenths

0.04 - there are 4 hundredths

The correct answer is

0.04

(read "four hundredths")
