Answer: 24%

Explanation:

for these problems you can use this equation:
(x)/(n) *100=p

where x=given quantity, n=total amount, and p is your answer.

for this problem x=18 (regular sodas)

we add the amount of regular and diet sodas to get n=75 (18+57)

when we plug it in we have
(18)/(75) *100 which gives us our answer, p, 24%

hope this helped ♡
