Emily's family loves to work together in the garden. They have a slight preference for flowers, as 60%, percent of their plants are flowers and 40%, percent are vegetables. They have 50 plants growing in the garden. How many vegetable plants do they have?

Answer:

20 vegetable plants

Explanation:

In order to figure this out, you need to find 40% of 50. You can solve that by doing 0.40 * 50, which gives you 20. I hope that helps!
