A salt water fish tank has 24 fish in it. If 3 of those fish are Clown Fish, what percent are Clown Fish?

To determine what percentage of the fish are Clown Fish in a saltwater tank with 24 fish total, follow these steps: 1. **Identify the number of Clown Fish:** - There are **3 Clown Fish**. 2. **Calculate the percentage:** - Use the formula: \[ \text{Percentage} = \left( \frac{\text{Number of Clown Fish}}{\text{Total Number of Fish}} \right) \times 100 \] - Plug in the numbers: \[ \text{Percentage} = \left( \frac{3}{24} \right) \times 100 \] \[ \text{Percentage} = 0.125 \times 100 \] \[ \text{Percentage} = 12.5\% \] **Answer:** 12.5 % of the fish in the tank are Clown Fish.
