WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST THANKS AND 5 STARS FOR CORRECT ANSWER Desmond ran a lemonade stand in front of his house for the fans walking to the football game. On the first Saturday, he sold 80 cups of lemonade. The second Saturday was cold and rainy so he sold only 70% of what he had sold the previous Saturday. How many cups did he sell on the second Saturday?

Answer :

Answer:

56

Step-by-step explanation:

First, convert the 70% so that we can use it with the 80 cups. To do this, convert the percent to a decimal by moving the decimal 2 spaces to the left:

70% → 70.00 → 0.70 → 0.7

70% percent can be seen as 0.7. Multiply this by 80:

[tex]80*0.7=56[/tex]

So, 70% of 80 is 56. Desmond sold 56 cups on the second Saturday.
