Answer 1

Looks like a trick question to me.

Answer 2

How many tiles of the 50 are green?

Answer 3

It was on the pssas

Answer 4

6 of the 30 are green... tells me that 6 are green, unless the question is how many tiles out of the entire 50 are green.

Answer 5

Mabe it was 6 green tiles of the 50

Answer 6

Then what would it be?

Answer 7

In that case, you would find the percentage of the 6 out of 30 tiles, then apply the same percentage to the remaining 20. add that percentage to the 6 known.

Answer 8

Oh thank you

Answer 9

6/30=20% so find 20% of 20.

Answer 10

then 6+(20% of 20)= your answer
