Melody Curtis · Answer 1

Dinh read 20/25 pages, simplified by dividing by common factors this equals 4/5.

Because percentages are measured out of 100 divide this number by 5 (the denominator) and you are left with 20. Then divide by 4 (the numerator) and you are left with 80.

Therefore, the percentage of assigned pages read equals 80%.
