By using the percent and division , The number of gingerbread cookies Liam get is 7
Percentage is nothing but how many number of elements are of one type out of 100. It means if we have total 100 number of elements and out of that 20 are of some specific color then these 20 elements are 20 percent of total 100 elements.
We have total 35 cookies and includes two types of cookies, one is gingerbread cookies and another is sugar cookies.
x + y = 35
Let the number of gingerbread cookies be x and the number of sugar cookies be y
Given that 20 % of the total cookies, is gingerbread cookies,
x = 20% of 35
x =( 20/100)*35
x = 7
Therefore, we can say that number of gingerbread cookies are 7
