Answer:

22.22% or 22.2% (rounded to nearest tenth) or 22% (rounded nearest whole number)

Explanation:

22+33+15+20=90

20/90 are sugar

simplify and you get 2/9

2/9 as percent is 22.22222...%

Round to get 22.22% or 22.2% or 22%

I really hope this helps!!

Answer:

22.2%

Explanation:

There were 90 cookies all together. 20 of them were sugar, so

20/90 = 0.22222 were sugar. To convert a decimal to a percent, multiply by 100%, so we have...

0.22222(100%)= 22.2%
