Percentage of lollipops after Caden received from Owen
= 100% + 20%
= 120%
Percentage of Caden's lollipops that Winnie had after receiving from Caden
= 50% x 120%
=
50100 x 120%
= 60%
Percentage of lollipops that Caden had left after giving to Winnie
= 120% - 60%
= 60%
100% = 100
Number of lollipops that Caden had left
= 60% x 100
=
60100 x 100
= 60
