1. In Mrs. Taylor's English class, 12 of the 21 students received a B on their essay. What percent of students earned a B?

When you ask "What is 12 out of 21?" you want to know what percent 12 is out of 21.

Here are step-by-step instructions showing you how we calculated 12 out of 21 as a percentage:

The first step is to divide 12 by 21 to get the answer in decimal form:

12 / 21 = 0.5714

Then, we multiplied the answer from the first step by one hundred to get the answer as a percentage:

0.5714 * 100 = 57.14%

Therefore the answer is 57.14% of students earned a B
