Question

If matb = 20%, mbtd = 72%, and mctd = 38%, what is matb + mbtd + mctd?

a. 82%
b. 110%
c. 130%
d. 130.5%

Answer 1

To find the sum of the three given percentages (matb, mbtd, and mctd), add them together to get 130%, which corresponds to answer option (c).

Step-by-step explanation:

When solving a question involving the sum of different percentages, the approach is to simply add the given percentages together. In this case, we are given the following percentages to add:

• matb = 20%
• mbtd = 72%
• mctd = 38%

Adding these together:

20% + 72% + 38% = 130%.

Therefore, the sum of matb, mbtd, and mctd is 130%, which makes the correct answer (c) 130%.
