Deandre has completed 34 deliveries so far this week. He needs to make 68 deliveries for the week. What percentage of his deliveries has Deandre completed?

1 answer

To find the percentage of deliveries Deandre has completed, you can use the formula:

\[ \text{Percentage of deliveries completed} = \left( \frac{\text{Number of completed deliveries}}{\text{Total deliveries needed}} \right) \times 100 \]

In Deandre's case:

  • Number of completed deliveries = 34
  • Total deliveries needed = 68

Now plug the numbers into the formula:

\[ \text{Percentage of deliveries completed} = \left( \frac{34}{68} \right) \times 100 \]

Calculating the fraction:

\[ \frac{34}{68} = 0.5 \]

Now multiply by 100 to convert to a percentage:

\[ 0.5 \times 100 = 50 \]

Therefore, Deandre has completed 50% of his deliveries.
