Question

At the sewing store, Natalie bought a bag of mixed buttons. The bag included 15 buttons, of which 40% were large. How many large buttons did Natalie get?

Answer 1

6

Explanation:

The bag included 15 buttons, of which 40% were large means 40% of 15

40% = 40/100 = 2/5 = 0.4

Of = multiply

40% of 15 = 0.4 * 15

0.4 * 15 = 6

The answer is 6 large buttons

Hope this helps :)

Have an awesome day!
