Step by Step Solution

In order to solve problem, you must evaluate floor(n₀ / n₁ * 100).

n₀ =	57
n₁ =	5000

floor(n₀ / n₁ * 100)
Evaluate n₀ / n₁ = 0.0114
floor(0.0114 * 100)
Evaluate 0.0114 * 100 = 1.14
floor(1.14)
Evaluate floor(1.14) = 1
1
The answer to the problem and the result of floor(n₀ / n₁ * 100) is 1
