A bakery sold a total of 500 cupcakes in a day, and 83% of them were vanilla flavored. How many of the cupcakes sold that day were vanilla flavored?

Answer :

   Total number of vanila flavored cupcakes sold in a day by the bakery is 415.

Calculations to find the actual number from its percentage:

  • Expression to be used,

        Number of flavored cupcakes = percentage of vanila flavored

                                   cupcakes × Total number of cupcakes sold in a day

Total number of cupcakes sold by the bakery = 500

Percentage of the cupcakes having vanilla flavor = 83%

Number of vanila flavored cupcakes = 83% of 500

                                                             = [tex]\frac{83}{100}\times 500[/tex]

                                                             = 415

      Therefore, number of vanila flavored cupcakes sold by the bakery will be 415.
