Jeremy goes to the store where he buys 18 bananas. After two days, he notices that there are only 10 bananas that are left. Which equation below would Jeremy use to find the percent of bananas that he has left?

A. 10/18 = 100/x
B. 18/10 = x/100
C. 5/9 = x/100
D. 10/18 = x/55.5

Respuesta :

Total number of Bananas = 18
Number of Bananas that are left = 10

Percentage of Bananas that are left = x

Mathematically, x can be expressed as:

[tex]x= \frac{10}{18} * 100 \\ \\ \frac{x}{100}= \frac{10}{18} \\ \\ \frac{x}{100}= \frac{5}{9} [/tex]

Thus the correct percentage of number of bananas that are left is expressed by option c.
