1 answer

To determine which value represents a percentage between 11% and 17%, we need to convert each option into a percentage.

  1. A: 0.159 \[ 0.159 \times 100 = 15.9% \]

  2. B: 0.013 \[ 0.013 \times 100 = 1.3% \]

  3. C: 11 / 1000 \[ \frac{11}{1000} = 0.011 \quad \text{and} \quad 0.011 \times 100 = 1.1% \]

  4. D: 6/100 \[ \frac{6}{100} = 0.06 \quad \text{and} \quad 0.06 \times 100 = 6% \]

Now, we compare these percentages to see which one falls between 11% and 17%:

  • A: 15.9% (between 11% and 17%)
  • B: 1.3% (not between 11% and 17%)
  • C: 1.1% (not between 11% and 17%)
  • D: 6% (not between 11% and 17%)

The only value that represents a percentage between 11% and 17% is A: 0.159.
