Answer 2

Answer:

A) 12.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of brown sugar cinnamon packets = 2

Number of apple cinnamon packets = 2

Number of maple brown sugar packets = 4

Percentage of brown sugar cinnamon flavoured oatmeal packets

= number of brown sugar cinnamon packets / total number of packets * 100

$= \frac{2}{2+2+4+8} * 100$

$= \frac{2}{16} *100$

$= \frac{1}{8} *100$

$= \frac{25}{2}$

$12.5$%
