Answers:

  • Public transit = 1/20
  • Other = 1/25

======================================================

Explanation:

We divide the percentage values over 100 as you have done so for the first two boxes.

Drive alone = 80/100 = 4/5

Car pool = 11/100

----------

For the remaining two boxes, we do the same thing.

Public transit = 5/100 = 1/20

Other = 4/100 = 1/25

-----------

To reduce the fraction 5/100, we divide both parts by the GCF 5

  • 5/5 = 1
  • 100/5 = 20

So that's how 5/100 turns into 1/20

The same idea applies to 4/100 turning into 1/25 (except the GCF is 4 this time).
