Question

at Tara"s swimwear there are 2 types of bikini styles and 18 other types of swimsuit what percentage of the swimsuit styles are bikinis

Answer 1

To find the percentage of swimsuit styles that are bikinis, you can use the following formula:

\[
\text{Percentage of bikinis} = \left( \frac{\text{Number of bikini styles}}{\text{Total number of swimsuit styles}} \right) \times 100
\]

In this case, Tara's swimwear has:

- Number of bikini styles = 2
- Number of other swimsuit styles = 18
- Total number of swimsuit styles = 2 + 18 = 20

Now, plug in the numbers:

\[
\text{Percentage of bikinis} = \left( \frac{2}{20} \right) \times 100 = 10\%
\]

Therefore, 10% of the swimsuit styles are bikinis.
