Answer:

2 cats were adopted.

Step-by-step explanation:

When finding a percentage of something, heres a trick. Just take the number you taking the perccentage of, and mutiply it by the percentage. In this case, 24*12.

24*12 = 288.

Now take that new number and divide it by 100. Now you have your answer. In this case,

288/100 = 2.88.

Becuase these are cats, we can't have or adopt half of one XD. You can't adopt half of a cat, so we round it down to 2. Meaning, 2 cats were adopted.
