To find the percentage of cookies baked by Jenny we first have to know how many cookies total there were. 15+18+17=50 cookies all together. The question is asking us "what percentage" (x) "of" (multiply) 50 "is" (equals) 15? Using the variables and numbers only our questiion becomes 50x = 15. Divide both sides by 50 to get x = .3. Since this value is a percentage, we find that percentage by multiplying by 100. 30%.
Multiply 8 and 6 by 3.5 and then times them together.
8x3.5=28
6x3.5=21
28x21=588
Answer:
180
Step-by-step explanation:
75% times 240 would be 180
Area of the parallelogram = 20 x 16 = 320
Area of the triangle on top = 1/2 x 20 x 8 = 80
Total = 320 + 80 = 400 square inches
