Question

Divide 20 chocolates between Adi and Suresh such that adi gets 60% while Suresh gets 40% of the chocolates

Answer 1

Hello!

To find how much chocolate Adi and Suresh receives, you need to convert the percentage to a decimal, then you multiply that decimal by the total number of chocolates, which is 20.

To convert percentages to decimals, divide the percentage by 100, and remove the percentage.

60% / 100 = 0.60

20% / 100 = 0.20

Then, we multiply 0.60 and 0.20 by 20.

0.60 x 20 = 12

0.40 x 20 = 8

Therefore, Adi gets 12 chocolates and Suresh gets 8 chocolates.
