1 Jack and his friends are collecting cans for the food bank. Thus far, they have collected 1500 cans. Jack has collected 60 percent of the cans. Marcia has collected 25 percent of the cans. How many cans have their other friends collected thus far?

a. 200

b. 225

c. 375

d. 900

Incorrect. Please choose another answer.

To find what percentage of cans Jack and Marcia's friends have collected, first determine the total percentage that Jack and Marcia have collected:

60% + 25% = 85%

To determine what percent the friends collected, subtract Jack and Marcia's total from 100%:

100% - 85% = 15% collected by the friends.

To determine what part of 1500 cans is 15%, multiply 1500 by .15:

1500 x .15 = 225 cans
