178 sundaes were sold in July.
To calculate a percentage, we convert to a decimal by dividing by 100. So 23% = 0.23
145 x 0.23 = 33.35 This is how many more sundaes were sold in July than June. We need to add the 145 sold in June to the increased number to find July’s total.
145 + 33.35 = 178.35
You can’t sell .035/ roughly a third of a sundae, so we round to the whole number.
