Your doctor told you to eat 25 grams of fiber each day. You had 4 grams of fiber for breakfast. What percent of the 25 grams of fiber have you eaten so far?

4%


6.25%


16%


84%


Sagot :

It is 16% because you have to divide 4 into 25 

we know that

[tex]25\ grams[/tex] represent a [tex]100\%[/tex] percentage

so

by proportion

[tex]\frac{100}{25} \frac{\%}{grams} =\frac{x}{4} \frac{\%}{grams} \\ \\25*x=4*100\\ \\x=4*100/25\\ \\x=16\%[/tex]

therefore

the answer is

[tex]16\%[/tex]
