To find the percentage of jackets that are damaged, we can approach the problem as follows:

We are given:
- 66 jackets are undamaged.
- 75 jackets were produced in total.

So, the number of damaged jackets is:
\[
\text{Damaged jackets} = 75 - 66 = 9
\]

Now, to find the percentage of jackets that are damaged, we use the formula:
\[
\text{Percentage damaged} = \left( \frac{\text{Damaged jackets}}{\text{Total jackets}} \right) \times 100
\]

Substituting the values:
\[
\text{Percentage damaged} = \left( \frac{9}{75} \right) \times 100 = 12\%
\]

Thus, **12%** of the jackets are damaged.

2. If 20 more jackets were produced, how many would likely be damaged if the same proportion holds?
3. How would you calculate the percentage if the total number of jackets was unknown?
4. What is the ratio of damaged to undamaged jackets?
5. How would you represent this problem using a pie chart?

**Tip:** When working with percentages, always ensure the total value (denominator) is accurate to avoid calculation errors.

A clothing company that makes jackets finds that 66 out of 75 jackets are undamaged. What percent of the jackets are damaged?
