Answer:
$275
Step-by-step explanation:
This is what I got:
You first <u>convert</u> 2.75% into 0.0275
You then <u>multiply</u> 500 x 0.0275 = 13.75
Finally you <u>multiply</u> 13.75 x 20 = 275
so the answer should be 275
Percent is pars out of 100
40%=40/100=4/10=0.4
'of' means multiply
0.4 times something=56
divide both sides by 0.4
something=140
th enumber is 140
Because if you multiply 2 different irrational numbers (like the following)

You will get an irrational answer.
BUT
if you multiply the same square root (which are both irrational, you get a rational number)
