Question

1. A local charity is collecting food for the winter. They have asked 150

Answer 1

The charity should collect 600 cans of food

Number of families that the charity asked to donate food = 150

80% of the families donated 5 cans of food

Number of families that actually donated 5 cans of food = (80/100) x 150

Number of families that actually donated 5 cans of food = 0.8 x 150

Number of families that actually donated 5 cans of food  = 120

Number of cans donated by each family = 5

Number of cans donated by 120 families = 5 x 120

Number of cans donated by 120 families = 600

The charity should collect 600 cans of food
