Each percentage corresponds to a different group of flights: in-state, out-of-state, and international.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Using Percentages:<\/strong> To find out how many flights from out of state are included in the 240 flights, you apply the given percentage (35%) to the total number of flights. This is done by converting the percentage to a decimal (35% = 0.35) and multiplying by 240.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Result Interpretation:<\/strong> The result, 84, tells us that 84 flights came from out of state.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>In conclusion, <strong>84 flights<\/strong> arrived from out of state, which is 35% of the total 240 flights that arrived at the airport.
