Marnie conducted a survey of the cats in four shelters and wrote the following observations:


4 of the 18 cats in Shelter 1 were black

13 of the 24 cats in Shelter 2 were black

12 of the 20 cats in Shelter 3 were black

18 of the 25 cats in Shelter 4 were black


Based on the survey, which shelter had the greatest percentage of black cats?


Shelter 1

Shelter 2

Shelter 3

Shelter 4

Verified Answer :

Shelter 1 = 22.22% black cats

Shelter 2 = 51.17% black cats

Shelter 3 = 60% black cats

Shelter 4 = 72% black cats

Shelter 4 has the greatest percentage of black cats

I found the percentages by dividing the first number by the second number (4 divided by 18, etc.) Then moving the decimal point 2 places to the right to create a percent.
