Answer:

36 of the balls in the bag are yellow.

Explanation:

We know that the total amount of balls is 150. 32% blue, 44% red, and x% yellow.

First, we subtract 32% and 44% from 100% of the balls.

100 - 32 - 44 = 24. 24% of the balls are yellow.

Now we just multiply 150 by 24%

150 * 24% = 36.

Answer:

blue balls: 48

red balls: 66

yellow balls: 36

Explanation:

You first need to find out how many blue and red balls the bag contains, to do so we need to calculate the 32% and 44% of 150.

How to calculate it:

150 x 32 (the percentage number) = 4800

now divide the result in 100 : 4800 ÷ 100 = 48

same goes for the 44%

150 x 44 = 6600 ÷ 100 = 66

after this you only need to do the sum of 48 and 66 and subtract the result from 150:

48 + 66 = 114

150 - 114 = 36 ( yellow balls)
