Question

7% of a batch of chocolates were mis-shapes.If there were 2200 chocolates made, how many were mis-shapes?​

Answer 1

One hundred fifty four

Answer 2

154

Explanation:

To find the percentage, we can set up a percentage proportion, where x is 7% of 2200.

`(x)/(2200) = (7)/(100)`.

Now we can cross multiply to find the value of x.

`2200\cdot7=15400\\\\15400/100=154`

Hope this helped!
