Answer:
78%
Convert fraction (ratio) 39 / 50 Answer: 78%
I found that the given prices are $ 4 per pack of pens and $ 3 per pack of penciles.
The question is how much the bookstore spent on pens.
Then you have to multiply the number packs of pens, which is 1,528, times the price per pack pens which is $ 4.
So, the answer is: 1528 packs of pens * $ 4 / pack of pens = $6112.
So, what I did was multiply 33*6 and got 198 and then 228-198 to find out that the initial fee was 30 dollars. then multiply 33*9+30 to get a 9 month total cost of $327. Hope from here you are able to set up your equation now you have all the information needed :)
