Kerry bought a pair of athletic shoes for $45. She also bought a pair of colorful shoelaces for the shoes for $4.


What percent of the total amount that Kerry paid was the price of the shoelaces? Round to the nearest tenth of a percent, if necessary.


A.

8.2%


B.

8.9%


C.

9.8%


D.

11.3%

Verified Answer :

The total cost of the shoes and the shoelaces is $49, because $45 + $4 = $49.

To find the price of the shoelaces ($4) as a percent of the total cost, you would divide 4/49.

4/49 = 0.08163265306

As a percentage, this is about 8.2%
