To celebrate the first day of school, Pam brought in a tray of caramel brownies and walnut brownies. She brought 34 caramel brownies and 6 walnut brownies. What percentage of the brownies were caramel?
To find out the percentage of caramel brownies, divide the number of caramel brownies by the total number of brownies (34 + 6 = 40) and then multiply by 100. So, (34/40) * 100 = 85%. Therefore, 85% of the brownies were caramel.
