Answer: 29

Explanation:

34% of 86 had white blossoms

In a number sentence, the word “of” is a hint to multiply.

Change the percent to a decimal by moving the decimal to the left two places. (Whole numbers have invisible /assumed decimal places after the last whole integer)

0.34x86=29.24

Answer:

A. 29

Explanation:

1. Put the percentage in decimal form by moving it 2 spaces to the left ( it becomes .34)

2. Multiply the decimal (.34) by the number of trees

3. You then get 34% of 86 which is 29
