Answer:

If 200 is four qoaters, then 1 quater is 200/4 is 50. so 50 ice creams is strawberry. One quater in procantage is 25%.

after that you count how many ice crams are vanilia


(42)/(200) after you divide it you get 0.21 which is 21%

After you just deduct 25+21 from 100

you get

100-46=54

the answer is 54%

i hope this is right

1/4 * 200=50, 42+50= 92, 200 - 92 =108, 108/200= 0.54, 0.54 *100= %54
