Please Help!! Maxine spent 15 hours doing her homework last week. This week she spent 18 hours doing homework. She says that she spent 120% more time doing homework this week. Is she correct? Show your work to justify your decision.

Respuesta :

No she is not correct,120% is higher than 100%.Remember percentage is the number represented out of hundrend
Maxine would be correct.
Work:
120% = 1.2
15*1.2 = 18
Therefore, 15 hours * 1.2 = 18 hours

I hope this helps!
