A French restaurant used 555,580 ounces of cream last year. This year, due to a menu update, it used 45% less. How much cream did the restaurant use this year?

Respuesta :

Answer:

305,569 ounces of cream.

Step-by-step explanation:

  1. Take 45% and turn it into a decimal, which is 0.45.
  2. Multiply 555,580 by 0.45. This is 250,011
  3. Since the keyword is less, we want to subtract 555,580 by 250,011. This is 305,569. This is your answer.
