I = $1,200 * 8/100 * 240/360 =
10 months ago
Q:
I = $1,200 * 8/100 * 240/360 =
Accepted Solution
A:
The correct answer is:
$64.
Explanation:
We will mulitiply the first two numbers first.
We will first write 1200 as a fraction by putting it over 1:
1200/1 * 8/100.
We now multiply straight across: (1200*8)/(1*100) = 9600/100 = 96.
Now we will multiply this by the last fraction. Again we will make the whole number, 96, a fraction by placing it over 1:
(96/1)*(240/360).
Again we multiply straight across: (96*240)/(1*360)=23040/360.
When we divide this out, we get 64.
