Question:

Your friend has 100 pounds of bacon and offers to share 45% of it with you. If you promised your mom 30% and your cousin 25% of your share, how many pounds of bacon do you end up with?

  1. 20.25 pounds
  2. 24.75 pounds
  3. 13.5 pounds
  4. 24.75 pounds
  5. 11.25 pounds

Correct Answer: A

Explanation:

Your share = 45% of 100 pounds of bacon = .45 × 100 = 45 pounds

For mom and cousin = 30% + 25% = 55%

Percent left for you = 100% - 55% = 45%

45% of 45 pounds = .45 × 45 = 20.25 pounds
