It's simple.
1/10 = 10%.
1/5 = 20%.
So, 10+20 = 30%.
In that pie chart;
1/10 = 10%
1/5 = 20%
2/5 = 40%
3/10 = 70%
Total 100%.
1/10 = 10%.
1/5 = 20%.
So, 10+20 = 30%.
In that pie chart;
1/10 = 10%
1/5 = 20%
2/5 = 40%
3/10 = 70%
Total 100%.

First find what percentage of bones and skins are made of.
Which means;
Bones: 1/5x100= 20%.
Skin: 1/10x100=10%.
Together; 20+10= 30%.
Both of them constitute 30%.
Now we can easily know that we have left 70%.

Let the total part of pie chart 1 = 100%
So Bones = 100÷5 = 20
Skin = 100÷10 = 10
Total = 30.
So = 100-30 = 70 ans.
So Bones = 100÷5 = 20
Skin = 100÷10 = 10
Total = 30.
So = 100-30 = 70 ans.

Its simple skin 1/10* total body 100 = 10.
Now bones 1/5 *100 total body = 20. Now simple 10+20 = 30 skin and bones.
So total human body 100-30 answer 70.
Now bones 1/5 *100 total body = 20. Now simple 10+20 = 30 skin and bones.
So total human body 100-30 answer 70.

No I think the answer is 50%.
1/5 + 3/10= 1/2.
i.e., 50 % is made up of bones and skin which means another 50% is not made of bones and skin.
Therefore 50%.
1/5 + 3/10= 1/2.
i.e., 50 % is made up of bones and skin which means another 50% is not made of bones and skin.
Therefore 50%.

Bones and skin: 1/10 + 1/5.
Taking lcm: 1+2/10.
: 3/10.
Body made by bones and skin: 3/10 of 1.
So subtract 3/10 from 1.
1 - 3/10.
10-3/10 = 7/10 %.
700/10.
70.
