Question

Aster sold 18 oranges if this are 12% of her total oranges how many oranges are not sold​

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

So 18 oranges are 12 percent of her total oranges. You can use Ratio to solve this.

O : P

18 : 12                               P = Percentage     O = Orange

1.5 : 1

150 : 100                          

All I did was make the percentage one by dividing both numbers by 12. This makes it 1.5 oranges per percent. Times 1.5 with 100 to make it 100 percent.

Answer 2

Answer:

132.

Step-by-step explanation:

If 12% are sold then 100-12 = 88% are unsold.

12% = 18 oranges

1%   =  18/12 = 1.5 oranges,

88% = 1.5 * 88 = 132.
