Q:
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?
Accepted Solution
A:
Hi.
We can multiply 18.5 by 1.2 to get the answer.
I did this on paper & got 22.2 ounces.
Alternate way:
18.5 β’ 0.2
Add the product to 18.5.
Please do these calculations yourself. My multiplication maybe not be 100%, by my methods are.
