When Alina was hungry she ate c cookies, which was 30% of all the cookies she had. How many cookies did she have in the beginning?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Alina had at the beginning [tex]\frac{10}{3}c[/tex] cookies

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

c-----> represent 30% of all the cookies Alina had

Let

x-----> the 100% of all the cookies Alina had

by proportion

[tex]\frac{c}{30\%} =\frac{x}{100\%}\\ \\x=100*c/30\\ \\x=\frac{10}{3}c[/tex]

Answer: 3 1/3 c

Step-by-step explanation: We know that Aliana ate 30%.

Let's put it this way. Say there were 10 cookies. She would've ate 3 since it is 30%.

We need to divide 10 by 3, therefore saying that the answer is 3 1/3 c

Do not forget to label with c.

Hope this helps. ;D
