Step-by-step explanation:

Data

55% sandwiches cheese

252 chicken sandwiches

total number of sandwiches = ?

Process

1.- Calculate the percent of chicken sandwiches

Chicken sandwiches percent = 100 - 55%

                                                 = 45%

2.- Calculate the number of cheese sandwiches

                       45% 252 sandwiches

                        55%  x

                       x = (55 x 252)/45

                       x = 308 cheese sandwiches
