The school's math team has 14 new members this year, which makes a total of 34. The number of new members represents what percent of the total membership?
To find a % you want to divide the # of new members, by the total # of members.
14/34 =0.41
Since this gave you a decimal, multiplying by 100 will give you a %!
0.41 x 100 = 41%
This means that 41% of the club is new members!
