Carolyn counts 6 monkeys and 6 birds in the tree outside her window. Then two of the monkeys each eat one bird. What percent of the animals outside her window are monkeys now?
How many birds are there now? ** First find the new number of birds: 6 birds - 2 birds = <<6-2=4>>4 birds
How many animals are there now? ** Then find the new total number of animals: 6 monkeys + 4 birds = <<6+4=10>>10 animals
How many monkeys are there now? ** Then divide the number of monkeys by the number of animals and multiply by 100% to express the answer as a percentage: 6 monkeys / 10 animals * 100% = 60%
#### 60
