Try copying it into a Word document or an email form first -- and then try copying and pasting it here. If that doesn't work, you'll probably need to type it here.

To find the percentage of John's advertising spent on the Yellow Pages, follow these steps:

1. Add up the total advertising expenses: $500 (Newspaper) + $800 (Radio) + $875 (Yellow Pages) + $650 (Local flyers) = $2,825.

2. Determine the portion of the advertising expenses that went towards the Yellow Pages: $875 (Yellow Pages).

3. Divide the Yellow Pages expenses by the total advertising expenses: $875 / $2,825 = 0.30973.

4. Multiply the result by 100 to convert it to a percentage: 0.30973 x 100 = 30.973.

5. Round the percentage to the nearest hundredth: 30.973 ≈ 30.97.

Hence, approximately 30.97% of John's advertising expenses were spent on the Yellow Pages.
