Jonathon and Raymond earn a base salary plus commission. Jonathon earns $1500 plus 10% of his sales each month. Raymond earns $1

joja [24]

Answer:

The Jonathon and Raymond need to sell 6000 sales to earn the same amount each month.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Let no. of sales = x

Jonathon earning = $ 1500 + $\frac{10}{100} x$

Raymond earning = $ 1200 + $\frac{15}{100} x$

Given that the earnings of Jonathon & Raymond are same.

1500 + $\frac{10}{100} x$ = 1200 + $\frac{15}{100} x$

300 = $\frac{5}{100} x$

x = 6000 sales

Therefore the Jonathon and Raymond need to sell 6000 sales to earn the same amount each month.

there are 148 juniors and 272 seniors attending prom this year. if there must be three chaperones per 60 students, how many chap

valkas [14]

21 chaperones are needed for 420 students.

Step-by-step explanation:

No. of juniors = 148

No. of seniors = 272

Total = 148+272 = 420 students

3 chaperones = 60 students

1 chaperone = $\frac{60}{3}=20\ students$

Ratio of chaperon to students = 1:20

Let,

x be the number of chaperons for 420 students.

Ration of chaperones to students = x:420

Using proportion

Ratio of chaperones to students :: Ratio of chaperons to students

$1:20::x:420$

Product of mean = Product of extreme

$20*x=420*1\\20x=420\\$

Dividing both sides by 20

$\frac{20x}{20}=\frac{420}{20}\\x=21$

21 chaperones are needed for 420 students.
