With all due respect, I'm guessing that you're fine with the question,
but you could use some help on the answer. Am I right ?
-- The answer has something to do with the total amount the coach spent,
so we'll need to know that amount. Let's find it now:
(9 chickens) x ($5 each) = $45 for chicken
(15 burgers) x ($6 each) = $90 for burgers
Total amount he spent: ($45 + $90) = $135 all together ( nice coach ! )
What part of it was used for the chickens ?
Remember, he spent $45 for chickens.
$45 / $135 = 1/3 = 0.33333.... = ( 33 and 1/3 ) percent
Now I'm wondering ... it doesn't say anywhere in the problem ...
do you think he gave any of that food to the team ?
