Lizzy: Madeline has 10 flowers. If 4 flowers are red, 2 flowers are white, and the rest are blue, what percentage of flowers are blue?.
Me: Hmmm, let me think. I think this is the detailed solution:
There are 4 + 2 = 6 flowers that are not blue. Thus, there are 10 - 6 = 4 blue flowers. Thus, blue flowers make up (4 / 10) * 100 = 40%. Final answer: 40.
