last year 40 people adopted a manatee through fia's foundation. this year 15% more people adopted a manatee. how many people adopted a manatee this year?

Respuesta :

15% of 40 is 6 (remember of means times) so 40 x 0.15

Add 6 to 40 and you know 46 people adopted a manitee.  

6 more than last year.
