Question

Sanya ate 40% of the candies in the bag. If Sanya ate 40 candies, how many candies were there total in the bag?

Answer 1

100 candies

Explanation:

If 40 candies is only 40% of the bag then adding 60 more candies to that covers the rest of the percentage missing which would leave us with 40 candies + 60 candies or 60% and you'll get 100
