Question

Big will's ice cream cone contains 16 grams of saturated fat. This is 80% of his total daily allowance. What big will's total daily allowance of saturated fat in grams?

Answer 1

Answer:

20 grams

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the total allowance of fat

16 grams is 80% of his total allowance

x * 80% = 16

Change percent to a decimal

x *.8 = 16

Divide each side by .9

.8x/.8 = 16/.8

x = 20
