Question

A flower shop sold 90 bouquets of flowers on Friday. 30% of them were sold in the morning. How many were sold in the afternoon?

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

total no. of bouquets sold=90

bouquets sold in morning= 30%

=30/100×90

=3×9

=27

no. of bouquets sold in afternoon=90-27

=63

Answer 2

Given :

• Total number of boutiques of flowers sold = 90
• Percentage of boutiques of flowers sold in the morning = 30%

To find :

• No of flowers sold in the afternoon.

Solution :

Converting the percentage of boutiques of flowers into number of boutiques of flowers:-  

→30% of 90

→30/100 × 90

→3/10 × 90

→3 × 9

→27

Therefore,

The number of boutiques of flowers sold in the morning are 27.

Now,

The number of boutiques of flowers sold in the afternoon:-

→Total number of boutiques of flowers sold - The number of boutiques of flowers sold in the morning

→90 - 27

→63

Therefore,

The number of boutiques of flowers sold in the afternoon are 63.
