Question

Susan wants to have 30% of her gumballs be green If there are

Answer 1

Answer:

15 gumballs

Step-by-step explanation:

There would have to be...

30%*50 green gumballs

We can start by converting 30% to a fraction. Any percentage is just that number over one hundred so...

30/100*50

We can simplify 30/100 by dividing the numerator and the denominator by 10...

3/10*50

Cancel out 10 and 50 (50/10=5)

3*5

15 gumballs would have to be green
