Answer:

43.76%

Explanation:

The air density at the sea level ρ_s  = 1.25 kg/m^3.

also, air density at the top of the mountain where ρ_t = 0.547 kg/m^3.

taking temp as --50° C  and pressure as 1/3 of P_atm.

therefore,  t percent is the air density at the summit of Mount Everest relative to the air density at sea level

= [tex]\frac{\rho_t}{\rho_s}\times100[/tex]

=[tex]\frac{0.547}{1.25}\times100[/tex]

=43.76 %
