Eli is making soup for his family. He adds 3 cups of vegetables, 4 cups of broth, 1 cup of chicken, and 2 cups of noodles to the soup. What percent of the soup is vegetables?

D. 300%

1 answer

The total amount of ingredients in the soup is 3 + 4 + 1 + 2 = <<3+4+1+2=10>>10 cups.
To find the percent of the soup that is vegetables, divide the amount of vegetables by the total amount of soup ingredients and multiply by 100.

3 / 10 * 100 = 30%

Thus, the answer is C. 30%.
