Answer 2

Given:

In a packet of 40 skittles, 30% are red.

To find:

The number of skittles that are not red.

Solution:

The number of skittles that are not red is 28.

To answer this question, we will follow the following steps:

As given, we have,

The total number of skittles in a packet = 40

Out of 40, the percentage of red skittles = 30%

So,

The percentage of skittles that are not red = 100% - 30% = 70%

So,

The number of non-red skittles

$= 70\% \times \: total skittles$

$= \frac{70}{100} \times 40$

$= 28$

Hence, 28 skittles are not red.
