Answer:

200 Boxes of Popcorn

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the total amount of popcorn boxes there are in the store, we need to consider the amount of boxes displayed at the front of the store.

We have:

60 boxes = Cinnamon + Cheese

60 boxes = 15% + 15%

60 = 30% of the total boxes in the store.

Now we know that 60 boxes is equivalent to 30%, we can use this to find the number of kettle corn.

60 + 60 = 120

30% + 30% = 60%

This means that we have 120 Kettle Korn boxes.

We can also use the amount of 60 boxes to find what 10% will be equivalent to.

60 boxes = 30%

So if we divide the number of boxes by 3, we'll get the 10% of the total number of boxes.

60/3 = 30%/3

20 = 10%

So all in all we have:

120 Kettle Korn

60 Cinnamon + Cheese

20 Caramel

120 + 60 + 20 = 200

There are 200 popcorn boxes in the store.
