Question

Brad put 10 crickets in his pets lizard cage. After one day, Brad's lizard had eaten 20% of the crickets he had put in the cage. By the end of the next day, the lizard had eaten 25% of the remaining crickets. How many crickets were left in the cage at the end of the second?

Answer 1

Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

20% of 10 is 2. So at the end of the first day there were 10-2=8 Crickets left. 25% of 8 is 2 so we subtract 2 from 8 to get 6, which is the answer.
