What percent of the fifty US states are included in the continental US?

The problem as stated: Given - 2 states are NOT continental. Given - there are 50 states. Find - % of states that ARE continental. 50 = Total states -02 = Non-continental states --- 48 = Continental states 48 of 50 states are continental. 48 / 50 (expressed as a fraction) 48/50 = x/100 (setting up the equation) 48*100 = 50*x (by cross multiplication.) 4800/50 = x (divide both sides by 50) 96 = x (solving the equation) 48/50 = 96/100 (substituting for x) 96/100 = 96% (fraction written as a percentage) This may be, according to popular but incorrect usage. Alaska is on the same continent as 48 other states and is therefore part of the Continental US.
