thomas made 318 curry puffs. he sold 2/3 of them.how many curry puffs were left?
well, that would be 1/3 of 318, right?
To find out how many curry puffs were left after Thomas sold 2/3 of them, we need to calculate the quantity that he sold and subtract it from the total number of curry puffs he made.
First, we need to find out how many curry puffs Thomas sold.
To do this, we multiply the total number of curry puffs (318) by 2/3:
318 * 2/3 = 212
Therefore, Thomas sold 212 curry puffs.
To find out how many curry puffs were left, we need to subtract the number of curry puffs sold (212) from the total number of curry puffs (318):
318 - 212 = 106
So, there were 106 curry puffs left after Thomas sold 2/3 of them.
