60 people will be attending a presentation. 60% of the memos are blue, 20% are red, 15% are green and 5% are yellow. How many green memos do you need to print?

Do the easiest percentages first:For me its this order to figure it out,
20% of 60 is 12 -double 10%-
5% of 60 is 3 -half of 10%-
15% of 60 is 9 - 10% + 5%-
60% of 60 is 36 -10% x 6-
Add all these together so 12+3+9+36 =60 so he doesn't need to print anymore double check this though!!
