Wilson has 60 chocolates. He gives 30% of the chocolates to kids.write the number of chocolates that he gave to kids

Respuesta :

30% of 60 is 30/100 or 3/10 f 60
3/10 times 60=180/10=18
he gave 18
You have to set up proportions or two fractions equal to each other. x will be equal to a number of chocolates Will gives to the kids.
[tex] \frac{x chocolates}{60 chocolates} = \frac{30 percent}{100 percent} [/tex] 
Cross multiply and they you'll get 1800 = 100x
Divide both sides by 100 and you get x = 18
Therefore Will gives 18 chocolates to the kids
