Give the step-by-step reasoning process and then the final answer. Trent caught 180 tadpoles then let 75% of them go. How many did he keep?
User
First find the number of tadpoles Trent released: 180 tadpoles * .75 = 135 tadpoles. Then subtract the number he let go from the total number to find the number of tadpoles he keeps: 180 tadpoles - 135 tadpoles = 45 tadpoles.
The final answer: 45.
