Answer:
45% of the mangoes are bad.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Number of mangoes in basket = 40
Number of good mangoes = 22
Number of bad mangoes = Total mangoes - Good mangoes
Number of bad mangoes = 40-22
Number of bad mangoes = 18
Percent of bad mangoes = [tex]\frac{bad\ mangoes}{total\ mangoes}*100[/tex]
Percent of bad mangoes = [tex]\frac{18}{40}*100[/tex]
Percent of bad mangoes = 0.45*100 = 45%
Hence,
45% of the mangoes are bad.
