Question

Jacqueline has performed a play 20 times. The director says that they have finished 80% of their total performances. How many times will Jacqueline perform the play in all?

16 performances
25 performances
30 performances
36 performances

Answer 1

Answer:

25 performances

Step-by-step explanation:

If 80% of their total performances is 20 shows then 40% of their total performance is 10. Then divide it in half again and you will get 20% and 5 shows. You only need to know 20% to find the total amount. 20% + 80% = 100%. 5 + 20 = 25

I am sorry if this doesn't make a lot of sense, I didn't know how to word it!!
