Question

Solve for each of the following situations.

Megan ordered her favorite pizza with 12 slices. Sadly, she could finish only 75% of the whole pizza. How
many pizza slices are left?

Answer 1

She left 3 slices

Explanation:

to find the number of slides that I have concluded, we will do the following

`(75)/(100) * 12 = 9`

Then She left

`12 - 9 = 3`

Answer 2

There are 3 slices left.

75% of 12 is 9, meaning she ate 9 slices. 12-9 is equal to 3, so there are 3 slices left.
