Question

Joel has a bag with 128 pieces of candy in it. He gives his sister 25% of the candy. How many pieces of candy does Joel give his sister?​

Answer 1

Answer:

$Joel \: \: gave \: \: his \: \: sister \: \: 32 \: \: pieces\: \: of \: \: candy$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{x}{128} = \frac{25}{100}$

$(x)100 = (25)128$

$(x)100 = 3200$

$\frac{(x)100}{100} = \frac{3200}{100}$

$x = \frac{3200}{100}$

$x = 32$

$Joel \: \: gave \: \: his \: \: sister \: \: 32 \: \: pieces \: \: of \: \: candy$
