Question

Caroline started the day with 75 tickets at the fair. At the end of the day, the number of tickets she had was 32% less than what she started with. How many did she have at the end of the day

Answer 1

Answer: 24

Explanation:

75(0.32) = 24

I got this because 75 is what it started as so I put it as the start of the equation. Then I saw the 32% which would be equal to 0.32 so multiplying would get me the answer because it is a decimal which is smaller than one.
