Here we are looking for the percentage of beads out of the total that Paco received that were orange.

The total number of beads Paco received is equal to orange + the different color. 45 + 5 = 50 total beads

Then, we'll need to create a fraction for the number of orange beads Paco received over the total number of beads. 45 / 50

Lastly, we can use our calculator to find a decimal number for the proportion of orange beads. 0.90

Multiply 0.90 by 100 to get the percentage. 90% orange beads

Hope this helps!! :)

Answer:

90%

Step-by-step explanation:

so in order to find the percentage of orange beads, you need to find out how many orange beads there are out of the total amount

altogether there are: 45+5 = 50 beads

of those 50 beads, 45 are orange right, so you need to find

[tex] \frac{how \: many \: orange \: beads \: there \: are}{total \: number \: of \: beads} \times 100\%[/tex]

which is

[tex] \frac{45}{50} \times 100\%[/tex]

you can make the base to be 100 so you can find the decimal without a calculator:

[tex]\frac{90}{100} \times 100\%[/tex]

since the 100s cancel out in the multiplication process you get 90%
