A carterer makes 50 l of lemonade. She keeps 10% of the lamonade for her family. She sells 65% of the remaining lenonade. How many liters of lemonade does the carterer have left?
0.1*50 L = 5 L kept
50-5 = 45 L left
0.65*45 = 29.25 L sold
45-29.25=15.75
therefore 15.75 L are left
To find out how many liters of lemonade the carterer has left, we need to calculate the amount kept for her family and the amount sold.
1. Calculate the amount kept for her family:
- 10% of 50 L = (10/100) * 50 L
- 10/100 * 50 L = 5 L
2. Calculate the amount sold:
- Remaining lemonade = 50 L - 5 L
- Remaining lemonade = 45 L
- 65% of 45 L = (65/100) * 45 L
- 65/100 * 45 L ≈ 29.25 L
3. Calculate the amount of lemonade the carterer has left:
- Leftover lemonade = Remaining lemonade - Amount sold
- Leftover lemonade = 45 L - 29.25 L
- Leftover lemonade ≈ 15.75 L
Therefore, the carterer has approximately 15.75 liters of lemonade left.
To find out how much lemonade the carterer has left, we need to follow these steps:
Step 1: Calculate the amount of lemonade kept for the carterer's family.
To do this, we can multiply the total amount of lemonade (50 liters) by the percentage kept, which is 10%.
10% of 50 liters = (10/100) * 50 = 5 liters
After keeping 5 liters for her family, the carterer has 50 - 5 = 45 liters of lemonade remaining.
Step 2: Calculate the amount of lemonade sold.
We need to multiply the remaining lemonade (45 liters) by the percentage sold, which is 65%.
65% of 45 liters = (65/100) * 45 = 29.25 liters
Now, subtract the amount of lemonade sold from the remaining lemonade.
45 - 29.25 = 15.75 liters
So, the carterer has 15.75 liters of lemonade left after keeping 10% for her family and selling 65% of the remaining lemonade.
