1. **State the problem:** A bakery sold 400 cupcakes in a day, 68% of which were mocha cupcakes. We need to find how many cupcakes were chocolate.
2. **Formula and concept:** The total cupcakes sold is 400. The percentage of mocha cupcakes is 68%, so the percentage of chocolate cupcakes is $100\%-68\%=32\%$.
3. **Calculate the number of chocolate cupcakes:**
$$\text{Chocolate cupcakes} = 32\% \times 400 = \frac{32}{100} \times 400$$
4. **Simplify the multiplication:**
$$= \frac{32}{\cancel{100}} \times \cancel{400}$$
$$= 32 \times 4 = 128$$
5. **Answer:** There were **128 chocolate cupcakes** sold that day.
This means out of 400 cupcakes, 128 were chocolate and the rest were mocha.
