Jillian sold 12% of the candy bars the class sold to raise money for a new water cooler in the school. If she sold 36 candy bars, what was the total number before taxes?

Respuesta :

Answer:

So we can write an equation to solve this:

12/100 = 36/x

And then we are going to solve for x

x(12/100) = 36

36 x (100/12) = 300

The total number of candy bars was 300
