Question

Ayden had a goal of finishing painting at least 80%of the 500 square meters of a house's walls by today. He actually finished painting 415 square meters today.

Did Ayden meet his goal? Why?

Answer 1

$Let \: 415 \: {m}^{2} \: is \: x\% \: of \: {500 \: m}^{2} \\ Then, \\ \frac{500x}{100} = 415 \\ x = \frac{415 \times 100}{500} \\ x = 83\%$

YES, AYDEN HAS COMPLETED HIS DUTY AS HE HAD TO PAINT ONLY

80 % OF THE WALL IN ONE DAY, BUT HE PAINTED UP 83 % I.E MORE THAN TARGETED DUTY.
