Question

Last night, the two dinner specials at Aisha's favorite restaurant were salmon filet and steak. The restaurant served 55 specials in all, 40% of which were salmon filets. How many salmon filets did the restaurant serve?

Answer 1

Answer:

22 salmon filets.

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all, the restaurant served 55 specials.

You would then take 40% of 55 and you would get 22. (or do 0.4 x 55)

The 40% were the salmon filets, and so you get your answer.

the other 60% are steaks, but we aren't looking for that.
