so we're trying to figure what portion of silas' slime is detergent. we know that his slime is a combo of 5 oz glue and 2 oz detergent for a total of 7 oz of slime.

what we want to find is how much of those 7 oz of slime is detergent.

quite simply 2 oz of the 7 is detergent.

to make that into a percent just divide 2 by 7.

2/7 = 0.2857

then move the decimal over two spots to get

28.57 or

D. 28.6%

just remember that percents are just how much makes up the whole.
