Question

A food concession owner in a mall sold 120 beef, vegetable, and pork sliders in 7 days. 20% of the sliders sold were beef and 15% were vegetable. How many pork sliders were sold?

Answer 1

Answer:

78 pork sliders

Step-by-step explanation:

The food concession owner sold 120 beef, vegetable and pork sliders.

20% were beef.

15% were vegetable.

The percentage of pork sliders sold is:

100 - (20 + 15) = 100 - 35 = 65%

The number of pork sliders sold is therefore:

65/100 * 120 = 78

78 pork sliders were sold.
