Answer:
hello!!!
300 cupcakes
please read the explanation.. it always helps... trust me...
Step-by-step explanation:
alrighty here it goes...
okay.. so we start by reading the problem (duh) but also underlining the important numbers that we need. yes, it really is that simple, trust me....
okay so the percentage of chocoalte cupcakes was 8% and the amount of vanilla cupcakes was 276.
we start by taking 100% - 8% = 92% so the amount of vanilla cupcakes sold was 276 which is also 92% of the total amount of cupcakes.
so now we need to find out 92% of what number gets us 276.
the percentage formula (in this problem) should be as follows:
92/100 x (total amount of cupcakes) = 276
to solve for total amount of cupcakes you do 276 x 100 then you divide by 92 to get your answer (which is 300)
i hope this helps!!!
