72/150 = 0.48
0.48 * 100% = 48%

Answer: There is 48% of cans of popcorns stocked were sold that weekend.

Explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of cans of popcorns = 150

Number of cans sold = 72

We need to find the percentage of can of popcorns stocked were sold.

Percentage would be


(Cans\ sold)/(Total\ cans)* 100\\\\=(72)/(150)* 100\\\\=48\%

Hence, there is 48% of cans of popcorns stocked were sold that weekend.
