Answer:
14. 70% of 20000 is 14000. 25% of 14000 is 3500. 3500 students applied.
15. The percentage of 4000 that 2600 equates to would be 65%.
16. 4% of 33000 is 1320.
16b. Double of 1320 is 2640.
17. 3% of 110 + 275 + 200 + 145 is 21.9. 97% of that is 711.1. Total is 730.
18. There are 1656 men working. Total of 1380 + 1656 is 3036. Two ways to solve this are:

Answer: Option B is the cheaper deal (the 12 batteries for $14.76)
===========================================================
Explanation:
For the first deal we can say
3 batteries = 4.80 dollars
3/3 batteries = 4.80/3 dollars .... divide both sides by 3
1 battery = 1.60 dollars
The unit price for the first deal is $1.60 per battery.
----------------------------------
For the second deal we could say
12 batteries = 14.76 dollars
12/12 batteries = 14.76/12 dollars .... divide both sides by 12
1 battery = 1.23 dollars
The unit price for the first deal is $1.23 per battery.
This is the cheaper deal.
----------------------------------
So in short, you're dividing the total cost over the number of items to get the unit price.
Answer: A. $16.13
Step-by-step explanation:
Total students = 82+74+96+99 =351
Sum of earnings of 82 seniors = $26.75 x 82= $2193.5
Sum of earnings of 74 juniors = $12.25 x 74 = $906.5
Sum of earnings of 96 sophomores = $15.50 x 96 = $1488
Sum of earnings of 99 freshmen = $10.85 x 99 = $1074.15
Total earnings = $2193.5 + $906.5+ $1488 +$1074.15
= $5662.15
(Total earnings) ÷ (Total students )
= $5662.15÷ 351
= $16.13
