Question

A store has 40 bags of potato chips on the shelf. Of those 40 bags, 30 are cheddar flavored. what percentage of the bags of chips are not cheddar flavored?

Answer 1

Non cheddar flavored bags of chips = 40-30 = 10 bags

=> Percentage of those bags of chips = 10/40 * 100% = 25%

Answer 2

In this question ,it is given that a store has 40 bags of potato chips on the shelf. Of those 40 bags, 30 are cheddar flavored.

First we have to find number of bags which are not cheddar flavoured.

And for that , we have to subtract number of chaddered flavored bags from total number of bage, that is

`= 40 - 30 =10`

And the required percentage is

`= (Number \ of \ chaddered \ flavored \ bags )/(total \ number \ of bags )*100`

`= (10)/(40)*100 = 25%`
