A store stocked 150 bundles of Charmin Extra Soft and Fluffy toilet tissue for a weekend sale. Last weekend, 72 bundles of the Charmin Extra Soft and Fluffy toilet tissue were sold. What percent of the
bundles of stocked Charmin Extra Soft and Fluffy toilet paper were sold that weekend?

Respuesta :

Answer:

48% was sold

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the percent sold be x

x/100 * 150 = 72

(This equation basically means...what percentage of 150 bundles will give us 72 bundles remaining? and that's the answer we need)

Simplifying...

150x/100 = 72

3x/2 = 72

3x = 144

x = 48%
