Question

A large bottle of juice contains 500 milliliters of juice. A medium bottle contains 80% as much juice as the large bottle. How many milliliters of juice are in the medium bottle?

Answer 1

Answer: 400 milliliters

Step-by-step explanation: To find 80 percent of 500 you first covert the percentage into a decimal. To do this, you move the decimal point two spaces to the left. 80.0% becomes 0.8 as a decimal. Then you multiply it by 500. 500 times 0.8 equals 400.
