Question

It took Helen 15 days to knit 100% of a quilt. Assuming she knit the same amount every day, how many days did it take her to knit 40% of the quilt?

Answer 1

Ok so 100% - 40% = 3/5 but if you do it in a decimal its 0.6 but if you subtrack 15 - 40% it kinda a impossible problem so lets try 40% - 15 = 73/5 and as a decimal 14.6...Uhm thats really all I can give you for your problem.

Answer 2

6

Explanation:

100% -----> 15 days

40% ------> ? days

how to solve: (40 x 15) devided by 100

= (600) devided by 100

= 6

therefore, it took het 6 days to knit 40% of the quilt.
