There were 30 cookies in a basket. Haley ate 10% of the cookies. Erin ate 1 6 of the cookies. Hannah ate 1 5 of the cookies. Madison ate 30% of the cookies. How many cookies are left in the basket?

Respuesta :

The number of cookies left in the basket after everyone has eaten out of the cookies is 7.

How many cookies are left?

The first step is to convert the fractions to percentages.

1/6 x 1000 = 16.67%

1/5 x 100 = 20%

Now determine the sum of the percentages of the cookies eaten : 10% + 30% + 16.67 + 20% = 76.67%

Determine the percentage of cookies left = 100 - 76.67 = 23.33%

Number of cookies left = (23.33 / 100) x 30 = 7
