Answer:

No, Justin is incorrect.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. To find how much 18/40 as a percent is, we just multiply 18/40 by 100:

  • [tex]\frac{18}{40} * 100[/tex]
  • [tex]\frac{9}{20} * 100[/tex]
  • [tex]\frac{900}{20}[/tex]
  • [tex]45[/tex]

2. As you can see, 18/40 as a percent is 45%, not 35%. Therefore, Justin is incorrect.
