Abaker has 20 pounds of sugar. he uses 3/4 of the sugar to bake muffins. how much sugar does he have left?

Hey there!

We can find the answer to this by finding how much is 3/4 of the sugar and subtracting that from the 20 pounds of sugar he started with.

3/4 in decimal form is 0.75, so we can multiply 20 by 0.75 to get 3/4 of 20.

0.75 x 20 = 15

This means 3/4 of the sugar is 15 pounds.

Now we can subtract that from the original 20 pounds he started with.

20 - 15 = 5

He has 5 pounds of sugar left.

Hope this helps!
