Answer:
The correct answer is 65% of cans are recycled.
Step-by-step explanation:
You can think of the percentage problems as a proportion:
[tex]\frac{13}{20} = \frac{x}{100}[/tex].
Then you can either cross multiply to get 20x = 1300, and then divide both sides by 20 to get x = 65
OR
You can notice that you can multiple 20 (the denominator) by 5 to get 100, so you must also multiply 13 (the numerator) by 5 to find x, which in this equation, is 65.
Hope that helped! :)
