A good start would be to hit that power switch on the corner.
Salutations!
<span>Last month Sarah Ryan and Taylor received a total of 882 emails. If Sarah receive 25% more emails than the sum of the numbers of emails received by Ryan and Taylor. How many emails did Sarah receive?
Lets solve this!
Let the sum of the number of email received by Ryan and Taylor be "x" and "y".
Sarah + Ryan + Taylor = 882 emails.
Sarah = 25/100 ( x+ 7)
Sarah = 25 + x + y/100 = 882
Now, isolate the numbers carefully ---
Sarah = 25 + x + y = 822 </span>× 100
Sarah = 25 + x + y = 82,200.
Sarah = x + y = 82,200 - 25
Sarah = x+ y = 82,175.
Sarah received 82,175 emails.
Hope I helped (:
Have a great day!
