Hailey is reading a book that is 250 pages. She wants to read 40% of her book today. Write an equation(proportion), that can be used to determine how many pages Hailey needs to read, x? (you do not need to solve)

Respuesta :

Answer:

I believe it would be 250 x .40= 100

Step-by-step explanation:

It would be kind of like if you were shopping and got 40% off a bag.

If the bag was 250 you would pay 150 for it. You would do 250 x .40 (because this a percentage in decimal form) which equals 100. This is what she has read, 150 would be what she has left to read, just like if you were buying a bag, you'd have 150 dollars left to pay....

Hope that makes sense.
