A 1 in 35 chance is what percent?

Answer 1

Ah, isn't that a happy little question! To find the percentage of a 1 in 35 chance, you simply take the reciprocal of 35, which is 1/35, and then multiply by 100 to get approximately 2.86%. Just remember, there are no mistakes, only happy little accidents in math!

Answer 2

Convert 35 into 100 and repeat this operation with 1 to give the percentage.

To convert 35 to 100, first divide by 35 then multiply by 100 : (35/35) x 100 = 100

Repeating this process with 1 (instead of 35) gives :- (1/35) x 100 = 100/35 = 2.86%
