Step-by-step explanation:

We have to multiply 60 by 15%

15% = $\frac{15}{100}$ = 0.15, hence

number of text = 60 × 0.15 = 9

Answer 2

Answer:

Answer is 9.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, from question statement we observe that

Total messages= 60

15 percent of total messages were to her best friend.

15 percent= 15/100=.15

hence, number of text to her friend = .15×60= 9

Bethany sent 9 text messages to her best friend.
