Question

padma mixes 300ml of her favourite drink.she uses 15% orange juice and 5% pineapple juice.the rest is lemonade. how many ml of lemonade does she use? p.s pls explain your answer

Answer 1

100% = 300ml
15% = 45ml
5% = 15ml
20% = 60ml
100% - 20%= 80%
80% = 240ml
So your answer is 240ml

Answer 2

Percentage of Lemonade = 100 - (15 + 5)
= 100 - 20 = 80%

Now, We have to calculate the 80% of total amount of the drink i.e., 300 ml

So, 300 * 80%
= 300 * 0.80   [ 80% = 0.80 ]
= 240

In short, Your Answer would be: 240 ml

Hope this helps!
