Question

Tim read 70% of his book containing 230 pages. How many pages does he have left?

Answer 1

Answer:

Considering the whole book as 100%, there’s 30% left.

Then, 30% of 230 = 0,3*230 = 69 pages.

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

69

Step-by-step explanation:

To do this, you want to first find how many pages he has read

So, to get that you want to multiply 230 by 70% or 0.7 (70% = 0.7 because to get the percent, you multiply the number by 100)

230 * 0.7 = 161

BUT, since you want to find how many pages he has left, you subtract the amount of pages he has read by how many pagest here are in total like so:

230 - 161 = 69 pages left
