To answer this question you will find out the total number of cupcakes donated and then calculate the amount of each flavor based on the percentage that is stated.
Here are the steps:
1. 12 x 10 x 12 (12 classes each donating 10 dozen) = 1440
2. 0.55 x 1440 (55% are chocolate) = 792 chocolate
3. 1440 - 792 (the remaining number of cupcakes)=648
4. 1/3(33 1/3%) x 648 = 216 red velvet
5. 1440 - 792 (chocolate) - 216 (red velvet) = 432 vanilla cupcakes
Chocolate-792
Red velvet - 216
Vanilla - 432
Based on the given mathematical statement, it can be rewritten into a mathematical equation to simplify and to be solved easily. The statement, "When one is subtracted from three-tenths of a number" corresponds to the equation, 3x/10 - 1, that is assuming the number is represented by the variable x. This is equal to one-fifth of the number. In other words,
3x/10 - 1 = x/5
x = 10
The answer is 90%. You get this answer by multiplying both the numerator and denominator by 5 so 18x5=90 and 20x5=100 giving you a fraction of 90/100 and a percentage of 90%.
