Answer:
15% of the vegetables are radishes.
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the percentage of radishes among the total number of vegetables, you need to use the following formula:
[tex]Percentage = \frac{Number of radishes}{Total number of vegetables} *100[/tex]
Number of radishes = 9
Total number of vegetables = 9 (onions) + 15 (carrots) + 9 (radishes) + 15 (beets) + 12 (turnips) = 60
[tex]Percentage = \frac{9}{60} *100[/tex]
[tex]Percentage = \frac{3}{20} *100[/tex] = 15%.
