Question

A company’s advertising budget is split between newspaper ads, magazine ads, television ads, and internet ads. The company spends the same amount of money on newspaper and magazine ads. It spends 4 times the amount of money on television ads as it does newspaper ads. It spends 2 times the amount of money on internet ads as newspaper ads. If the budget is $22,000, how much money is spent on magazine ads.

Answer 1

Answer:

$2750 are spent on ads in magazines.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, split the costs into parts of a whole. Since newspaper/magazine are the least and most prices are compared to them, that will be the amount of 1 unit.

1m, 1n, 4t, 2i

There are 8 parts split equally from the 22,000. Magazine only gets 1 of those 8 parts, so simply divide 22,000 by 8 to find the cost spent on magazines.

22000 / 8 = 2750
