I'm pretty sure it would be $19. You can check my work to make sure.
First, I multiplied 15 by 20%, which in decimal form would be .20 or .2. I got the answer 4.00, which could also be simplified to 4. Afterwards I added 4 to 15 to add the profit the market gets when they have to pay back the $15 for pound. 4+15=19, so $19 for 20%.
<span>Given number is 41/50,
Now, let’s find which one is closer to the given choices:
=> 9/11
=> 10/11
Notice that the given number and given choices are fraction numbers. In order
know which one is closer to the given number, we need to convert these numbers
into a decimal.
Note, that in converting a fraction number to a decimal is we need to divide
our numerator by our denominator to get the answer.
=> 41/50
=> 0.82
The value of 41/50 is 0.82. Now, let’s find the value of the given choices.
=> 9/11
=> 0.818 or 0.82
=> 10/11
=>0.909 or 0.91
Thus, the correct answer is 9/11 is equals to 41/50.</span>
