Question

In a cafe, out of all the drinks sold, the proportion of cold drinks was 35%. If the total drinks sold was 120, how many hot drinks were sold?

Answer 1

Answer:

78

Step-by-step explanation:

Total no. of drinks sold = 120

No. of cold drinks sold= 35% of 120

                                   = 35/100 * 120

                                  = 42

∴ No. of hot drinks sold = 120 - 42

                                       = 78

Hence 78 hot drinks were sold that day

Answer 2

Answer:

78

Step-by-step explanation:

proportion of cold drinks = 35%

total drinks sold = 120

so first we subtract 35 from 100 to get the proportion of hot drinks,

100-35=65

therefore, proportion of hot drinks = 65%

now we shall multiply $\frac{65}{100}$ and 120 to get the answer

$\frac{65}{100}$ * 120

=> 78
