Kara owns books with fewer than 100 pages and books with 100 pages or more

Answer 1

Kara owns 35 books. Of these books, 20% have fewer than 100 pages and 80% have 100 pages or more.

To find the number of books with fewer than 100 pages:

• \(20% \text{ of } 35 = 0.20 \times 35 = 7\)

To find the number of books with 100 pages or more:

• \(80% \text{ of } 35 = 0.80 \times 35 = 28\)

Complete statement: Kara owns 7 books with fewer than 100 pages and 28 books with 100 pages or more.
