To avoid overcrowding, a local animal shelter has a monthly goal to find 30% of their dog homes.If they started with 80 dogs this month and reached their monthly goal, how many dogs were found homes?

Respuesta :

Answer:

24

Step-by-step explanation:

The animal shelter owned 80 dogs. They want to find 30% of 80 dogs.

Convert the percentage to a decimal by dividing by 100.

30% = 0.30 = 0.3

30% of 80 = 0.3(80)

Solve the expression to find the number of dog that found homes.

0.3(80)  Multiply

= 24

Therefore 24 dogs found homes.

Your answer is 24! Hope this helps
