Question

A store stocked 150 cans of popcorn for a weekend sale. That weekend, 72 of the cans were sold. What percent of the can of popcorn stocked were sold that weekend?

Answer 1

Answer: There is 48% of cans of popcorns stocked were sold that weekend.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of cans of popcorns = 150

Number of cans sold = 72

We need to find the percentage of can of popcorns stocked were sold.

Percentage would be

$\dfrac{Cans\ sold}{Total\ cans}\times 100\\\\=\dfrac{72}{150}\times 100\\\\=48\%$

Hence, there is 48% of cans of popcorns stocked were sold that weekend.

Answer 2

72/150 = 0.48
0.48 * 100% = 48%
