Answer:

34%

Explanation:

Given information:

Regular M&Ms = 125

Peanut M&Ms = 95

Total = 125 + 95 = 220

The total number of M&Ms are blue = 42 + 35 = 77

We need to find the percentage now.

The percentage of the M&Ms that are blue = (77/229)*100

= 0.34*100

= 34%

Hope you will understand the concept.

Thank you.
