Jill is painting her 20 toenails and fingernails. She paints 6 of her nails purple, 8 of them blue, and the rest striped. What is the difference in percentage points between the percentage of nails painted blue and the percentage painted striped?
First find the total number of striped nails: 20 nails - 6 nails - 8 nails = <<20-6-8=6>>6 nails
Then divide the number of blue nails by the number of total nails and multiply by 100% to express the answer as a percentage: 8 blue nails / 20 total nails * 100% = 40%
Then divide the number of striped nails by the number of total nails and multiply by 100% to express the answer as a percentage: 6 striped nails / 20 total nails * 100% = 30%
Then subtract the percentage of striped nails from the percentage of blue nails to find the difference: 40% - 30% = 10%
