Question

Mr Stevenson has 160 cows goats horses and chickens on his farm 19 percent of the animals are cows 28 percent goats 13 percent horses and the rest are chickens how many chickens are on the farm

Answer 1

Answer:

64 Chickens

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Add up the percents

19% + 28% + 13% = 60%

2. Subtract from 100%

100% - 60% = 40%

3. Multiply the total number of animals by the percent of chickens

160 * .4 = 64 Chickens

Answer 2

Answer:

64 chicken

Step-by-step explanation:

160 x 0.19 = 30 cows if you (round)

160 x 0.28 = 45 goats if you (round)

160 x 0.13 = 21 horses if you (round)

19+28+13 = 60 percent out of  100, subtract 100%-60%= 40%

160 x 0.40 = 64 chickens.

To check you can do..

30+45+21= 96

Then you add 64 chicken to rest of the animals.

64 + 96 and you get all the animals.

So 64 is the answer.
