There are 32 peanuts in a bag. Elliott take 25% of the peanuts from the bag. Then Zaire takes 50% of the remaining peanuts, How many peanuts are left in the bag?

Sagot :

First we have to find 25% of 32.
25% of 32 its 0.25*32=8
Now we have to subtract 32 and 8
32-8=24
Now we have to find 50% of 24
50% of 24=12
24-12=12- its the answer
