Answer:
4250
Step-by-step explanation:
5000 packs of gum were produced by the factory.
85% of them contained mint-flavoured gum.
That is,
(85/ 100) × 5000 packs contained mint-flavoured gum.
= 85 × 50
= 4250.
Answer:
Out of 5000 packs, 4250 contained mint-flavored gum.
Answer:
[tex]\boxed{\sf\: The\: factory \: mad e \: \boxed{ \Huge{\bf 4250} }\: packs \: of \: mint \: gum.}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given :
Number of Packs of gum – 5000
Percent of packs that contain mint flavoured gum – 85%
To find :
Packs of mint gum that factory make
Solution :
We know that 85% means 85/100
[tex] \rm \: Now \: Multiply \: 85/100 \: by \: 5000 \: which \: is \: the \: no. \: of \: the \: packs \: of \: gum :-[/tex]
Hint :- The Simplified form would be the answer.
Which is :
[tex]\sf \implies \cfrac{85}{100} \times 5000[/tex]
[tex] \rm \: Cancel \: all \: zeroes(two) \: of \: 100 \: and \: two \: zero es \: of \: 5000:-[/tex]
[tex]\sf \implies \: \cfrac{85}{1 \cancel{00}} \times 50 \cancel{00}[/tex]
[tex]\sf \implies \cfrac{85}{1} \times 50[/tex]
1 is on the denominator.It has no value.So,Just remove it.
[tex]\sf \implies85 \times 50[/tex]
[tex] \rm \: Multiply \: 85 \: and \: 50 :-[/tex]
[tex]\sf \implies \: 4250[/tex]
4250 is the result.
Hence,
[tex] \rm \: The\: factory \: mad e \boxed{ 4250 } \: packs \: of \: mint \: gum.[/tex]
[tex] \rule{300pt}{2pt}[/tex]
I hope this helps!
