To find the percentage equivalent of a fraction, you can divide the numerator (the number of parts you have) by the denominator (the total number of parts), and then multiply the result by 100.
In this case, Elizabeth read 1920 pages, and the total number of pages in the book is not given. Therefore, we cannot determine the fraction of the book that Elizabeth read, and therefore cannot determine the percentage equivalent.
Thus, none of the responses (A, B, C, D) can be the correct answer.

To find the percentage equivalent of a fraction, you can divide the numerator (the number of parts you have) by the denominator (the total number of parts), and then multiply the result by 100.
In this case, Elizabeth read 19 out of 20 parts of her book. To find the percentage, we can calculate:
(19 / 20) * 100 = 95%
Therefore, the correct answer is B: 95%.

D 60%60%
To find the percentage of the money Sofie spent on the board game, divide the amount she spent ($15) by the total amount she earned ($20), and then multiply the result by 100.
(15 / 20) * 100 = 75%
Therefore, Sofie spent 75% of the money on the board game. The correct answer is A: 75%.
