- What fraction of the stickers is white? Give your answer in the simplest form.
- There are 483 white stickers in the box. How many stickers are there in the box altogether?
(a)
Percentage of stickers that are white
= 100% - 34% - 20%
= 46%
Fraction of stickers that are white
=
46100 =
2350 (b)
Number of white stickers = 23 u
23 u = 483
1 u = 483 ÷ 23 = 21
Total number of stickers
= 50 u
= 50 x 21
= 1050
Answer(s): (a)
