Afile that is 254 megabytes is being downloaded. if the download is 12.7% complete, how many megabytes have been downloaded? round to the nearest tenth.

Alright. For this problem, let's think of what we have to do.

Let's ask ourselves the question: What is 12.7% of 254?

In math, "of" always means multiply! So we can do 12.7% * 254

Let's convert 12.7% into a decimal. To do this, divide by 100.

12.7/100=0.127

Okay, now let's do 0.127 * 254

0.127*254=32.258

Round that answer to the nearest tenth. Since the hundreds spot has a five, we round the ten up.

32.3

So, 32.3 megabytes have been downloaded!

Hope this helped! Comment if you have any questions! :)
