Question

Houa has an action figure collection. She keeps some in a display case and the rest on

the wall. 82 of her action figures are on the wall, and 59% of her action figures are in the display case. What is the total number of action figures in Houa's collection?

Answer 1

200 action figures

Explanation:

Given

`Wall = 82`

`Display\ Case = 59\%`

Required

Total action films

If 59% is on a display case, then 4!% is on the wall. Let the total be x.

So, we have:

`Wall = 41\% * x`

Substitute 82 for Wall

`82= 41\% * x`

`82= 0.41 * x`

`200= x`

`x = 200`
