Explanation:

A sandwich shop has 70 stores and 90% of the stores are in California. The rest of the stores are in Nevada. How many stores are in California and how many are in Nevada?

For California

This is calculated as:

90% of 70 stores

90/100 × 70

= 63 stores

For Nevada

The rest of the stores are in Nevada.

The percent of stores in Nevada = 100 - 90%

= 10%

The number of stores in Nevada

= 10% × 70

= 10/100 × 70

= 7 stores
