Answer:the percentage of the donuts that she sold is 82.86%

Explanation:

Destiny has 6 donuts left in her box. She was not able to sell all of her donuts for her business field trip.

If she started with 35 donuts, it means that the total number of donuts that she was able to sell would be

35 - 6 = 29 donuts

Therefore, the percentage of donuts that she was able to sell would be number of donuts sold/total number of donuts × 100

It becomes

29/35 × 100 = 82.86%
