Question

A box contains 75 eggs. Out of which 20% are rotten? How many eggs are rotten?
​

Answer 1

Answer:

20 % = 20/100 = 1/5

Number of eggs = 75

20 % of number of eggs = 1/5 × 75

===> 15 eggs were rotten out of 75 eggs

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

• Total eggs = 75

• Rotten eggs = 20%

Total number of rotten eggs = 20% × 75

$= > \frac{20}{100} \times 75 \\ \\ = > \frac{2}{10} \times 75 \\ \\ = > \frac{1}{5} \times 75 \\ \\ = = > 15$

• Total no. of rotten eggs = 15
