Question

An economy package of cups has 960 green cups. If the green cups are 40% of the total package, how many cups are in the package?

Answer 1

Answer: 2400 cups

Explanation:

total # of cups = x

# of green cups = 960

% of green cups of total = 40%

# green cups/# of total cups = % of green cups/% of total cups

960/x = 4/10

9600 = 4x

2400 = x
