Question

Juan inflated 45 balloons for his sister's quinceanera. If Juan inflated approximately 40% of the total number of balloons, how many balloons does Juan have?

Answer 1

Answer:

112

Step-by-step explanation:

45 is 40% of what number?  Set up an equation where 45/x = 40/100.  Cross multiply 45 x 100= 4500.  Then divide 4500/40 =112.5.
