The largest frog in the world is the goliath, found in West Africa. This type of frog can grow to be 12 inches long. The smallest frog in the world is about 4% as long as the goliath. What is the approximate length of the smallest frog in the world?
Multiply 12 by 4%, or 4/100, and 4/100 simplifies to 1/25. 12/1 x 1/25 = (12 x 1)/(1 x 25) = 12/25, which equals 0.48. So, the smallest frog is 0.48 inches long, but can be rounded to 0.5 inches long.
