Question

Simon makes 30 cakes he gives 1/5 of the cakes to Sali. He gives 10 percent of the 30 cakes to Jane what fraction of the 30 cakes does he have left?

Answer 1

Answer:

7/10

Step-by-step explanation:

0.1 = $\frac{1}{10}$

1/5

30 × 1/10 = 3

30 × 1/5 = 6

6+3 = 9

30 - 9 = 21

21/30 simplified = 7/10

Answer 2

Answer:

7/10

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of cakes made by Simon = 30 cakes.

Number of cakes gave to Sali =

1/5 Of total cakes = 1/5 x 30 = 6 cakes.

Number of the cakes gave to Jane = 10% of 30 cakes

10/100 as a decimal 0.10.

10% of 30 cakes = 0.10 times

30 = 3 cakes.

Total number of cakes left = Total cakes made - Cakes gave to Sali - Cakes gave to Jane

30-6-3 = 21

21 cakes left.

21/30 = 7/10
