The answer is 2 as the whole number, 83 as the top and 100 as the bottom
Answer:
7
Step-by-step explanation:
By Basic proportionality theorem:
The total number of cookies baked by grandma = 96
Number of grandchildren = 8
As given, all cookies were evenly divided among 8 children, let us assume that everyone except Cindy got equal share. So on being divided equally, it becomes, cookies per children.
But, as mentioned that Cindy received 'c' cookies less, so let us suppose Cindy received 'x' cookies.
Expression becomes:
Hence, Cindy received 12-c cookies.
The change from 3/4 to 4/10 is found by obtaining and applying the LCD:
15/20 to 8/20 is a negative change, and the amount of the change was -7/20.
We compare this result to the original value, 15/20, to obtain the percentage change in the fraction:
-7/20
----------- = -7/15 = -0.467 => -46.7%
15/20
