Answer 1

29/36×100
80.5%...
I think this would be the answer

Answer 2

The percentage showed up for work is 8.556 %

● Given that total number of Carpenters is 36.

● On a certain day only 29 carpenters were present.

● To calculate the percentage we have to divide the number of carpenters present on that specific day by the total number of carpenters and multiply the product with 100 i.e., we have to divide 29 with 36 and multiply it with 100.

Percentage = (29 / 36) * 100

= (0.80556) * 100

= 80.556

● Therefore the required percentage is 80.556%
