Respuesta :
there are 18 players, 13 are seniors, that means 18 - 13 are not seniors, namely 5.
now if we take 18 to be the 100%, what is 5 off of it in percentage?
[tex]\bf \begin{array}{ccll} amount&\%\\ \text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}&\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}\\ 18&100\\ 5&p \end{array}\implies \cfrac{18}{5}=\cfrac{100}{p}\implies p=\cfrac{5\cdot 100}{18}[/tex]

Answer:
27.7778
Step-by-step explanation:
If 13 out of 18 players are seniors then 5 of them are not.
To find the percentage you do (5/18) ⋅ 100
5 divided by 18 gives us 0.27777778
Then we multiply by 100 (or move the decimal point two spaces to the right)
The result should be 27.7778%
(the 7s go on forever)
