Answer:

320 toys

Step-by-step explanation:

5/16=100/x (cross multiply) : 5x:1600

Answer:

from the question it's given that 5% are sold of the total..

now it's also told that 16 toys are sold which means 5% of total = 16

let's say total shipment = X

now 5% of X = 16

5X/100 = 16

X = 16 × 100 / 5

X = 320

Total shipment is 320 toys

I hope its helpful
