Answer:
a) -3
Step-by-step explanation:
Find the multiples of each number:
18: 1 , 2 , 3 , 6 , 9 , 18
24: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6 , 8, 12, 24
Now find the matching numbers:
1 , 2, 3 , 6
Figure out the number of yellow beans in each bag:
Bag A: 0.5*26 = 13 beans
Bag B: 0.25*28 = 7 beans
Bag C: 0.2*30 = 6 beans
The total number of beans in the bowl: 26+28+30 = 84
Total number of yellow beans: 13+7+6 = 26
Percentage of yellow beans: 26/84 *100 = 30.9523
Rounded answer: 31%
