Solution

Step 1: Identify the total number of balloons and the number of blue balloons.

  • Total balloons = 2424
  • Blue balloons = 33

Step 2: Use the formula for finding the percentage: (Part/Whole) * 100

  • Here, the part is the number of blue balloons and the whole is the total number of balloons.

Step 3: Substitute the values into the formula: (33/2424) * 100

Step 4: Perform the calculation to find the percentage.

Step 5: Write the answer in a sentence.

Let's do the calculation:

(33/2424) * 100 = 1.36 (approximately)

So, approximately 1.36% of the balloons are blue.
