This table describes the departures of flights out of an airport for the months of March and April.

March Departed of time: 133
March Delayed: 30
April Departed on time: 102
April Delayed: 42

What percentage of the flights in April were delayed?
Give your answer as a percentage, to one decimal place.

Percentage of flights = x

To calculate the percentage of flights in April that were delayed, we need to divide the number of delayed flights in April by the total number of flights in April (departed on time + delayed) and then multiply by 100.

Total number of flights in April = April Departed on time + April Delayed = 102 + 42 = 144

Percentage of flights delayed in April = (April Delayed / Total number of flights in April) * 100
Percentage of flights delayed in April = (42 / 144) * 100

Calculating this equation, we find that the percentage of flights in April that were delayed is approximately 29.2%.

What fraction of the total number of flights during the two months were ones that departed on time in March?

[livid swallow]

To find the fraction of the total number of flights during the two months that were ones that departed on time in March, we need to divide the number of flights that departed on time in March by the total number of flights during both months.

Total number of flights during both months = March Departed on time + March Delayed + April Departed on time + April Delayed
Total number of flights during both months = 133 + 30 + 102 + 42

Fraction of flights that departed on time in March = March Departed on time / Total number of flights during both months
Fraction of flights that departed on time in March = 133 / (133 + 30 + 102 + 42)

Calculating this equation, we find that the fraction of the total number of flights during the two months that were ones that departed on time in March is approximately 0.394 or 39.4%.

don’t write it as a percentage, write it as a fraction
