Question

Only 20% of the children at a party voted to have tacos for lunch. There were 20
children at the party. How many voted to have tacos?

Answer 1

Answer:

4 children

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply the total amount of children by the percentage of children who voted to have tacos for lunch.

20% -> 0.2

20 * 0.2 = 4

Answer 2

Answer:

4 children voted for tacos

Step-by-step explanation:

20% can also be written as 20/100

So in this case, there are 20 children total, the number of children voted for tacos is 20% or 20/100 * 20

= 20*20/100

= 400/100

Divide both side by 100, we got:

= 400/100 / 100/100

= 4 children

So 4 children voted for tacos

Hope this help you :3
