1440 tons of grain where brought to a silo over two days. On the second day 80 percent of the amount of the amount of the grain delivered during the first day where brought in. How many tons where delivered on the first day

Answer 1

Answer:

1152 tons of grains

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told in the above question:

Total number of grains = 1440 tons of grain

On the second day 80 percent of the amount of the amount of the grain delivered during the first day where brought in.

Hence,

The number of grains brought in during the first day = 80% × 1440 tons

= 80/100 × 1440 tons

= 1152 tons of grains
