Question

Elias has a collection of 1,200 baseball trading cards. Of these cards, 35% are from the American League, 45% are from the National League, the rest are international players. How many trading cards are international players?

Answer 1

35(1200/100)= 420
45(1200/100)= 540

35%= 420
45%= 540

420+540=960

1200-960=240
240 cards are international players, or 20% of the cards are international players.
