12. Additional Example 2A: Recreation Application
Four friends volunteered to cut the grass around their neighbor’s house. Jay cut 23%
of the grass, Aimee cut of the grass, Ken cut 0.31 of the grass, and Bryn cut the rest. What percent of the grass did Bryn cut?
1 5
First, find what percent of the grass Aimee and Ken cut.
= 20% and 0.31 = 31%.
1 5
Next, subtract the percents you know from 100% to find the remaining percent.
100% – 23% – 20% – 31% = 26%.
Bryn cut 26% of the grass.

13. Additional Example 2B: Recreation Application
Jeremy organizes his movie collection by genre of his collection are dramas, are action
films, 3% are documentaries, 19.5% are comedies, and the rest of his movies are independent films. What percent of his movie collection are independent films?
2 5
First, find what percent of his films are dramas and action.
= 40% and = 32.5%
2 5
Next, subtract the percents you know from 100% to find the remaining percent.
100% – 40% – 32.5% – 3% – 19.5% = 5%.
5% of Jeremy’s movie collection are independent films.

14. Check It Out! Example 2A
Four store employees stock the shelves at the Electronics Store. Francisco stocked 14% of the shelves, Lauren stocked of the shelves, Ling stocked 0.19 of the shelves, and Mark stocked the rest. What percent of the shelves did Mark stock?
3 5
First, find what percent of the shelves Lauren and Ling stocked.
= 60% and 0.19 = 19%.
3 5
Next, subtract the percents you know from 100% to find the remaining percent.
100% – 14% – 60% – 19% = 7%.
Mark stocked 7% of the shelves.

15. Check It Out! Example 2B
Joe organizes his CD collection by genre of his collection is rock, is pop, 6% is
classical, 9.5% is country, and the rest of his CDs are jazz. What percent of his CD collection is jazz?
1 2
First, find what percent of his CDs are rock and pop.
= 50% and = 12.5%
1 2
Next, subtract the percents you know from 100% to find the remaining percent.
100% – 50% – 12.5% – 6% – 9.5% = 22%.
22% of Joe’s CD collection is jazz.

16. Additional Example 3A: Finding the Percent of a Number
The city of Dallas, Texas has a population of approximately 1,189,000 people. The population of the city of Austin, Texas is 55% of the population of Dallas. To the nearest thousand, what is the population of Austin?
Choose a method: Set up a proportion.
