A bakery sold a total of 500 cupcakes in a day, and 5% of them were vanilla flavored. How many of the cupcakes sold that day were vanilla flavored?

Respuesta :

25 were vanilla
500 divided by 100 is 5 meaning that one percent is 5 and 5x5 is 25

Answer:

25

Step-by-step explanation:

When calculating a percentage of a number always multiply it by the percentage divided by 100. In this case that would be 0.05, 500*0.05=25
