Answer:

Isabelle sold 60% of the corn on Saturday

Explanation:

In order to calculate the percentage of the corn that Isabelle sold we first need to divide the number of corn that she sold by the total number of corn that she had initially.

150 / 250 = 0.6

Now we simply need to multiply this decimal value by 100. This will give us the percentage of corn sold as a percentage value.

0.60 * 100 = 60%

Therefore, we can see that Isabelle sold 60% of the corn on Saturday
