Vicki purchased a box of
cupcakes. One-fourth of the cupcakes
were chocolate, 0.2 were vanilla, and
the rest were strawberry. In decimal
form, what is the difference between
the greatest and least amount of
cupcake flavors?

Respuesta :

The difference between the greatest and least amount of cupcake flavors is 0. 75

How to determine the difference

From the information given, we have that:

1/ 4 of cupcakes = chocolates

0. 2 of cupcakes = vanilla

Remaining = strawberry

Let the total number of cupcakes be 1

Strawberry = 1 - chocolates - vanilla

Strawberry = 1- 0. 25 - 0. 2

Strawberry  = 1 - 0. 05

Strawberry = 0. 95

The difference between the greatest and least amount of cupcake flavors

= Strawberry cupcakes - Vanilla cupcakes

= 0. 95 - 0. 2

= 0. 75

Thus, the difference between the greatest and least amount of cupcake flavors is 0. 75
