The answer would be C. (He counted Yolanda's candy as his own).

This is found by multiplying 500 (starting number of candy) and .64 (percentage divided by a hundred). Thjs would guve you 320, which you would then subtract from the starting number of candy (500) to get 180. 180 is Yolanda's number of candy, which gives you the answer.

Henry had 15 quarters. He gave his sister 4 quarters. How much money does he have now??
telo118 [61]

Answer:

$2.75

Step-by-step explanation:

A quarter's value as placed on it by the U.S. Treasury Department is $0.25, or 1/4 of a dollar.

Henry had 15 quarters, in which he gives his sister 4: 15 - 4 = 11

Henry now has 11 quarters. Multiply 11 with 0.25: 11 x 0.25 = 2.75

Henry has $2.75
