Cerell recorded the percent of her clothing that is Red, Yellow, Blue, or Orange. The results are shown in the table. If Cerell has 145 pieces of clothing, how many pieces of Yellow clothing does she own?

Answer 1

One. first what you want to do you want to convert 20% into a decimal and a way to do that you need to move a decimal two times to the left. when finding the percent of something you will always move the decimal two times to left

now that you have your 20% into a decimal you will multiply 145 by .20

after you have multiply 245 by .20 you should have gotten 29.00

Answer: She has 29 pieces of yellow clothing
