A cereal box says that now it contains 20% more. Originally, it came with 18.5 ounces of cereal. How much cereal does the box come with now?

Answer 1

Answer:

38.5

Step-by-step explanation:

they can hold 38.5 because 18.5+20= 38.5

Answer 2

Answer:

22.2 ounces

Step-by-step explanation:

20% of 18.5 ounces

= $\frac{20}{100}$ × 18.5 ounces

= $\frac{1}{5}$ × 18.5 ounces

= 3.7 ounces

20% more cereal in a box of cereal of 18.5 ounces = 18.5 + 3.7 ounces

                                                                                     = 22.2 ounces
