To calculate the percentage of shoes that are rejected, we need to find the fraction of shoes that are rejected and then multiply it by 100 to convert it into a percentage.
The fraction of shoes rejected is 3 out of every 200 pairs of shoes, which can be written as 3/200.
To convert this fraction to a percentage, we multiply it by 100:
(3/200) x 100 = 1.5%
Therefore, 1.5% of shoes are rejected.
