A shop has 300 parts out of which 5 are defective. What
percent are defective?
Answers
Answer:
Number of parts→300
Defective→5
% of defective= Defective part/ total part ×100
=5/300 ×100
=5/3
= 1.6%
percent : percentage, a relative value indicating hundredths of any quantity. One percent (symbolized 1%) is a hundredth; thus, 100 percent represents the whole and 200 percent represents twice the given amount.
For example, 1 percent of 1,000 chickens equals 1/100 of 1,000 or 10 chickens; 20 percent of an amount is 20/100 1,000 or 200. These relationships can be generalized as x = PT/100, where T is the total reference amount chosen to denote 100 percent and x is the amount equivalent to a given percentage of P T. In the example for 1 percent of 1 So 000 chickens is T 1000, P is 1 and x is found to be 10.
As per the question we need to find the percent of defective parts.
The given is a shop has 300 parts out of which 5 are defective.
Therefore
the number of parts= 300
and defective part = 5.
we know that
Percent of defective = (defective part/total part )*100
=
= %
Hence the require answer is %.
