You don't just go removing numbers here and there without a good reason. In any case, your whole approach here is wrong. You're calculating 60 percent of 12. But the question says to take 12 out of a group of 60 and tell what percent of the group you have. That's (12/60) x 100.
Answer:
0.375
Step-by-step explanation:
The purchasing price of the store = $29.25.
They want to resale it at 54% markup of the purchasing price.
54% of 29.25 = 0.54 × 29.25.
On multiplying 0.54 and 29.25, we get 15.795.
Resale price = The purchasing price + Markup
= 29.25 + 15.795.
On adding 29.25 and 15.795, we get 45.045.
We can round it to 45 to the nearest dollar.
<h3>Therefore, the resale price to the nearest dollar is $45.</h3>
If there are 128 fluid ounces per US gallon, and there are 3 gallons, 3x128=384. The teacher brought 384 fluid ounces of juice on the feild trip.
