The Candy Shack sells 138 pounds of candy on Tuesday. They sold 71.76 pounds of jelly beans. What percent of the candy sold was jelly beans?

Explanation:

Cross multiply the following:

x times 138 = 138x

100 times 71.76 = 7,176

Divide both sides by 138:

56.6

step-by-step explanation:

the ratio of the perimeters is equal to the scale.

the ratio of the areas is equal to the square of the scale.

34 / 20 = k

a / 19.6 = k²

substituting:

a / 19.6 = (34 / 20)²

a = 19.6 (34 / 20)²

a ≈ 56.6
