George sold
of his coins at the flea market.

Answer 1

First, we need to find the total number of coins in George's collection.

George has:
- 16 gold coins
- 28 silver coins
- 32 copper coins
- 4 bronze coins

Total number of coins = 16 + 28 + 32 + 4 = 80

Now, we need to find 15% of 80.

15% of 80 = 0.15 * 80 = 12

Therefore, George sold **12** of his coins at the flea market.
