Respuesta :

Okay so 15 apples=37.5%. if we substract that 37.5% out of the full 100%, we get 62.50%. Meaning that Jessica has 62.70%.

Answer:

62.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

40-15=25 apples left

25 apples/40 total=5/8 or 0.625

Translating that to a percent, we get 62.5% of the total apples left
