Last month Rudy’s Tacos sold 22 dinner specials. The next month they released a new commercial and sold 250% of last month’s dinners. How many dinner specials did they sell this month?
They Sold 55 the next month. 250% percent of 22 is 55.
In its first year of operation, Big Lake Camp had 40 campers. This year’s attendance was 180% of the first year’s. How many campers participated this year?

How many campers participated this year? \(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{End of Quote}}\) To solve this divide the "year’s attendance was 180% of the first year’s" by 100 \[180\div100=1.8\] Multiply (1.8) by the amount of campers Big Lake Camp had which is (40) \[1.8\times40=72\] So (72) campers participated this year.
