Question

A baker made 60 muffins by noon 45% of the muffins are sold. how many muffins were sold by noon

Answer 1

If you take away 45% from 60, it’ll be 33 so therefore the answer is 33

Answer 2

Here, we have to find 45% of the total muffins. So, you multiply:
0.45 x 60 = 27
27 muffins were sold by noon.
