Action movies make up 85% of devon's movie collection. if he has 20 movies, how many action movies are in devon's collection?

Number of Devon's movie collection

Method 2

We can also use ratio and proportion. According to the question, out of every 100 Action movies 85 are Devon's Movie collection. This means,

Action movies                                        Devon's collection                  

100                                                                         85

20                                                                            

If 100 corresponds to 85, then 20 will correspond to a less value than 85. If less more divides,Hence,

.

Therefore he has 17 movies that are in Devon's collection.
