Answer:

36

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total number of cotton candy = A

Number of blue cotton candy = 27 cones

Percentage of blue cotton candy = 75%

Therefore, the total number of cotton candy is calculated as:

27/A × 100 = 75%

2700/A = 75

Cross Multiply

75A = 2700

A = 2700/75

A = 36

Therefore, the amount of total cotton candy that we have is 36.
