Question

A stadium manager spends $50,000 on TV ads and $37,000 on cable TV ads. What percentage of his advertising expenditures is spent on cable TV?

Answer 1

Answer:

42.52%

Step-by-step explanation:

A stadium manager spends $50,000 on TV ads and $37,000 on cable TV ads.

We need to find the percentage of advertising expenditure on cable TV

First we find total expenditure on advertising,

Total expenditure = 50,000 + 37,000

                              = $87,000

Expenditure spent on cable TV = $37,000

Formula:

$Percentage =\dfrac{Individual}{Total}\times 100$

             $\% = \dfrac{37000}{87000}\times 100$

               $\% = 42.52\%$

Hence,  42.52% of his advertising expenditure is spent on cable TV

Answer 2

The fraction would be 37/87 which would be roughly 43%
