Respuesta :

Answer:

99.90%

Step-by-step explanation:

STEPS:

  1. Find the total amount
  2. Find out what number of what we want to know the percentage of there are out of the whole amount there is. (Divide the percentage amount we want to find by the total amount)
  3. Turn into a percentage by multiplying by 100

Find the total sum

30.2 mil = 30,200,000 small businesses + 30,000 other = 30,230,000 total

Find the fraction that small businesses make up of the total

[tex]\frac{small~businesses}{total~businesses} = \frac{30,200,000}{30,230,000} = 0.9990[/tex]

Convert to percentage

0.9990 → % = 0.9990 × 100 = 99.90%

Hope this helps,
