Malachai is doing a 20 miles bike ride. He has cycled 11 miles so far. What percentage of the the total distance has he cycled

11 miles / 20 miles =.55

.55 x 100 = 55%

11/20 is the proportion and you multiply by 100 to gey a percent

another way to solve is

11/20 x 5/5 = 55/100 = 55%

you multiply by 5/5 because it is equal to one and it makes the denominator equal to 100 it also follows the rule that whatever you do to the top you must do with the bottom
