On Monday, thirty percent of the pies sold at the pie store were apple. If 24 apple pies were sold on Monday, how many of the other types of pies were sold that day?
I think I should start with 30/100 and 24/x but I am not sure. =80 80-24 = 56

24/x = .3
x = 80
so there are total of 80 pies
80-24 = 56 pies left unsold
x = 80
so there are total of 80 pies
80-24 = 56 pies left unsold
Thank you!
