Question

A baker made 60 muffins for a cafe. By noon, 45% of the muffins were sold. How many muffins were sold by noon?

Answer 1

Answer:

27 muffins.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that a baker made 60 muffins for a cafe. By noon, 45% of the muffins were sold.

To find the number of muffins sold by noon let us find 45% of 60.

$\text{The number of muffins sold by noon}=\frac{45}{100}\times 60$

$\text{The number of muffins sold by noon}=0.45\times 60$

$\text{The number of muffins sold by noon}=27$

Therefore, 27 muffins were sold by noon.
