Ellen counted that she had 32 pumpkins, which was 80% of all of her pumpkin patch. How many pumpkins were in her patch total?

32 80 =

100

Total amount in patch- What we are trying to find

What we know

Brad had a total of 200 costumes and 8% were bad. How many costumes were bad?

8 = 200 100

3 Nights of Halloween

Gretchen and Ryan love Halloween so much that they decided to go trick-or-treating for 3 nights in a row. They decided to collect data on their candy income in the form of percents. Use the data given for each night to decide who was the better trick-or-treater. Show your work for each station to provide evidence of your thinking.

Night 1: The Tale of the snickersOn the first night, Gretchen and Ryan both love snickers and wanted to know what percent of their candy was snickers.

-Gretchen counted that she had 42 snickers, which was 30% of all of her candy.

-Ryan counted that he had 36 snickers, which was 40% of all of his candy.

Questions:How much total candy did Gretchen get? How much total candy did Ryan get? Who had more total candy?

Night 2: Visiting the NeighborhoodGretchen and Ryan both live in a neighborhood with 80 houses. On the second night they tried to visit as many house as they could in 2 hours.

-Gretchen visited 70% of the houses.

-Ryan visited 60% of the houses.

Questions:How many houses did Gretchen visit? How many houses did Ryan visit? How many more houses did Gretchen visit than Ryan?

Night 3: The Dreaded Bad CandyAfter 3 nights of trick-or-treating Gretchen and Ryan compared their total candy and saw that they unfortunately got some of the “bad candy” (hard tootsie rolls, circus peanuts, candy corn, apples, and toothbrushes).

-Gretchen had a total of 500 pieces of candy and 8% was bad.

-Ryan had a total of 450 pieces of candy and 6% was bad.

Questions:How many bad pieces of candy did Gretchen get? How many bad pieces of candy did Ryan get? Who had more bad pieces of candy?
