Answer 1

Answer:

25% of the milkshakes had whipped cream.

Step-by-step explanation:

Belle's Diner sold 8 milkshakes with whipped cream and 24 milkshakes without whipped cream. Given this information, we can add these two numbers to identify the total number of milkshakes Belle's Diner made:

$8+24=32$

Belle's Diner made 32 milkshakes in total.

To find the percentage of milkshakes that had whipped cream, simply divide the number of milkshakes that had whipped cream (8) by the total number of milkshakes (32):

$\frac{8}{32} =.25$

.25 as a percentage is 25% (move the decimal point two decimal places to the right).

Answer 2

Answer:

25% of the milkshakes have whipped cream on top.

Step-by-step explanation:

24+8=32

8/32=.25

*Note: To get the decimal form of any fraction you divide the numerator by the denominator.

.25 = 25%
