Dan's business makes $75,000 a year. He spends 6% of that on advertising. How kuch does he spend on advertising?
Here's what I did:
.06 • x = $75,000
Sorry, I'm kind of stuck around here, I don't really know if "$75,000" should be either part or total. But anyways, thank you!
advertisin= six percen OF 75000
= .06*75000= ....
0.06 * 75,000 = $4,500 on advertising
Thank you!
You're welcome.
To find out how much Dan spends on advertising, we can set up an equation and solve for the unknown variable. Let's use the equation you started with:
0.06 * x = $75,000
In this equation, x represents the total amount of money Dan spends on advertising. We want to find the value of x.
To isolate the variable x, we can divide both sides of the equation by 0.06:
(0.06 * x) / 0.06 = $75,000 / 0.06
Simplifying this will give us the value of x:
x = $75,000 / 0.06
x = $1,250,000
Therefore, Dan spends $1,250,000 on advertising.
