Answer:

He should order 15 long boards

Question:

Escape park owner want 30% of each order to include long boards he wants to know how many long boards to order out of a total of 50 skateboards

Explanation:

Let x and y represent the number of long board and the total number of skateboard to order.

Given that 30% of each order to include long boards;

x = 30% of y

x = 0.3y .....1

But, the total number of skateboard is given as 50

y = 50

From equation 1

x = 0.3y = 0.3(50)

x = 15

He should order 15 long boards
