Question

On Monday night, 21% of the television shows are comedy shows. There are 13 comedy shows on Monday night. How many total shows are on Monday night? Explain your reasoning.

Answer 1

Well, since we're finding the total amount of shows, I would do 100% - 21% which is 79%. So we're finding 79% of the total shows.

So I will find 79% of 13 which is 10.27. Then I will add 10.27 + 18 to get 28.27.
