Esteban has a big jar of change in his room. There are 600 coins in total and 240 of them are pennies. What percent of the coins are pennies?

The fraction represents the number of pennies out of all the coins in the jar. To find what percent of pennies are in the jar, we can turn the fraction into a percent.

We can first simplify the fraction by dividing both the numerator and denominator by the Greatest Common Factor of 240 and 600 using 120.

240 ÷ 100 = 2

600 ÷ 120 = 5

2 ÷ 5 = 0.4

0.4 × 100 = 40%

Therefore, 40% of the coins were pennies.
