10% of 30 _____ 30% of 100
35% of 60 _____ 60% of 35

Answer:
25% of 44 >  20% of 50
10% of 30 < 30% of 100
35% of 60 = 60% of 35

Explanation:
25% of 44 = 25/100 × 44 = 11
20% of 50 = 20/100 × 50 = 1000/100 = 10
25% of 44  > 20% of 50
10% of 30 = 10/100 × 30 = 3
30% of 100 = 30/100 × 100 = 30
10% of 30 < 30% of 100
35% of 60 = 35/100 × 60 = 21
60% of 35 = 60/100 × 35 = 21
35% of 60 = 60% of 35

Jordan takes 50% of the cherries from a bowl. Then Mei takes 50% of the remaining cherries. Finally, Greg takes 50% of the remaining cherries. There are 3 cherries left. How many cherries were in the bowl before Jordan arrived?
_____ cherries

Answer:
24 cherries

Explanation:
Let total cherries in a bowl=x
Jordan takes cherries=50% of x = 50x/100
Remaining cherries = x – 50x/100 = x/2
Mei takes cherries=50% of 50x/100 = x/4
remaining cherries= x/2 – x/4 = x/4
Greg takes cherries=50% of x/4 = x/8
remaining cherries = x/4 – x/8 = x/8
Now,remaining cherries in a bowl=3
x/8 =3
x = 8 × 3 = 24

What’s the Error? Kate has made 20 free throws in basketball games this year. That is 80% of the free throws she has attempted. To find the total number of free throws she attempted, Kate wrote the equation \(\frac{80}{100}=\frac{?}{20}\). What error did Kate make?
Type below:
_____________

Answer:
20 free throws is 80% of the total attempted
80% to decimal is:
80/100 = 0.8
If total attempted is x, we can say:
20 is 80% (0.8) of x
We can now write an algebraic equation:
20 = 0.8x
We simply solve this for x, that is the number of free throws she attempted:
20 = 0.8x
x = 20/0.8 = 25

Question 10.
Michaela is hiking on a weekend camping trip. She has walked 6 miles so far. This is 30% of the total distance. What is the total number of miles she will walk?
_____ miles

Answer:
20 miles

Explanation:
Since 6mi=30%,
You should find ten percent.
This is how, divide both sides by 3, and this gives you
