\(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{Originally Posted by}}\) @4evablood From google "A full circle has 360 degrees, which means that 100% of the circle is 360 degrees. First convert into a decimal. If you multiply 360 by 0.20, you get the degree measure that corresponds to the percentage, which is 72." " \(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{End of Quote}}\) no direct answer, you have to explain it

faithmiller:
