Answer:
Katherine: 920
Crystal: 552
Step-by-step explanation:
The total amount earned by each is 1472
The ratio of the earnings is Katherine / Crustal = 5/3
The total number of shares = 5 + 3 = 8
So the proportion for Katherine
5/8 = x / 1472 Cross multiply
8x = 5 * 1472
8x = 7360
x = 7360/8
x = 920
And the proportion for Crystal is
3/8 = x / 1472 Cross multiply
8x = 3 * 1472
8x = 4416
x = 4416 / 8
x = 552
100% of the price = $400
x % of the price = $320
we need to find x
using a proportion
100 : 400 = x : 320
100 * 320 = 400 * x
32000 = 400x
x = 32000 / 400
x = 80
That means the new price is 80% of the previous price.
100% - 80% = 20%
and based on this we can make a conclusion that the discount was 20%
I hope it is clear to you, feel free to ask anything about it :)
