I think a biographical dictionary.
His satire is aimed at the "hypocrisy" of making an adventure appear more glorious than it was. He is trying to say that there is nothing glorious about war, there is only death and suffering, and it is definitely not a pretty sight.
Start by working out what 10% is. 10% of 120 is worked out by dividing 120 by 10 which is 12.
Then work out 1%. Divide 120 by 100 because % means out of 100. You get 1.2.
Work out 2%. Times 1% (1.2) by 2 to get 2%. You get 2.4.
Work out 12%. Add 10% (12) of 120 and 2% of 120 (2.4) to get 14.4.
Your answer is <u>14.4
