Paige was assigned some math problems for homework. She solved the first 32 of the problems before dinner. She finished the last 20% of the assignment after dinner. How many math problems was Paige assigned

Respuesta :

40 problems 80%=32 problems Divide by 4 20%=8 Add 8 +32=40

80% of all problems=32 problems.
x=total number of problems.
We can suggest this equation:
80% of x=32
(80/100)x=32
x=(32*100)/80=40

Answer: 40 math problems were assigned.
