If there are approximately 7.9 million species on Earth, and about 950,000 of them are insects, what percentage of species are insects?
To find the percentage of insect species out of the total number of species, we can use the following formula:

Percentage = (Number of insect species / Total number of species) * 100

In this case, the number of insect species is 950,000 and the total number of species is 7,900,000:

Percentage = (950,000 / 7,900,000) * 100

First, perform the division:

Percentage = 0.12025316456 * 100

Next, multiply by 100:

Percentage ≈ 12.03%

So, approximately 12.03% of species on Earth are insects.
