Answer:
Hi.
The first thing you want to know is how many schools 60% is.
To find 60%: 4,000 x 0.6 (b/c 0.6 = 60%)
so, 60% of 4,000 = 2,400
To find the number of schools that consider SAT scores:
Subtract 2,400 from 4,000 which, equals 1,600
or
Find the remaining percentage; 40%:
4,000 x 0.4 = 1,600
Answer: 1,600 colleges
I hope this helps a little bit.
I'm not sure if you use "x" as your variable, so:
# + 5 = 3 or x + 5 = 3
