tyson:

ok thx

Shadow:

Find 15% of 56, call that x, then divide x by 56 (a fraction), you'll get a decimal. Whichever decimal is largest is the person who can read the most pages in a day.

Had to repost to fix a term.

tyson:

ok

Shadow:

To find the % of a number, convert the % to a decimal. Example: 10% of 100 10% -> 0.10 'Move the % forward two places' Multiply 0.10 by 100, you get 10.
