A small clothing store sells 3 different types of

accessories: 20% are scarves, 60% are ties, and
the other 40 accessories are belts. If half of the
ties are replaced with scarves, how many scarves
will the store have?

Answer:

100 scarves

Step-by-step explanation:

40 are belts which is the other 20%. So, each 20% is equivilent to 40 accessories. Half of the ties equals to 60. So if 40 scarves and 60 scarves combineit is 100.
