Answer:
Interphase: 55.56%
Prophase: 27.78%
Metaphase: 8.33%
Anaphase: 5.56%
Telophase: 2.78%
Step-by-step explanation:
All you need to do is follow the instructions. To get the percentage, all you need to do is divide the part by the whole then multiply it by 100%.
[tex]\dfrac{Part}{Whole}\times 100\%[/tex]
Now let's take your problem:
Number of cells in interphase:
20 this is the part and the whole would be the total cells, which is 36. Now we insert that into our equation:
[tex]\dfrac{20}{36}\times 100\%=0.5556\times100\%=55.56\%[/tex]
So now we apply the same to the rest:
Prophase:
[tex]\dfrac{10}{36}\times 100\%=0.2778\times100\%=27.78\%[/tex]
Metaphase:
[tex]\dfrac{3}{36}\times 100\%=0.0833\times100\%=8.33\%[/tex]
Anaphase:
[tex]\dfrac{2}{36}\times 100\%=0.0556\times100\%=5.56\%[/tex]
Telophase:
[tex]\dfrac{1}{36}\times 100\%=0.0278\times100\%=2.78\%[/tex]
