Question

15% of the toddlers in a preschool class drink water with their lunch. How many toddlers

are in the class if 3 toddlers drink water with their lunch?
(a) Draw a model for the situation (if you prefer to use a 100-grid model or ratio table
model, that’s fine too!) and label the “part,” “whole,” and “percent.”

Answer 1

15/100 = 3/x

15x = 300
x = 300/15
x = 20 kids
