Leo made 320 pounds from his cake stall at the school fair. 40% of the money he made was used to buy new cookery books for the school. How much money was spent on cookery books?

Answer 1

First, we need to calculate 40% of the money Leo made:

40% of 320 pounds = 0.40 x 320 = 128 pounds

Therefore, Leo spent 128 pounds on new cookery books for the school.
