First we need to find 2% of 35,000
2% equals 0.02 so we'll multiply 35,000 by 0.02
35,000 × 0.02 = 700
for every car he sells jack gets $700
now we need to divide that into 5,000
5,000 ÷ 700 = 7.14
now since you cannot sell 0.14 of a car you need to round up
he needs to sell 8 cars to meet his target income
It is 1,998 bigger than 2.

Answer:
replace recipe quantities:
1/4 ⇒ 5/8; 1/2 ⇒ 1 1/4; 1 ⇒ 2 1/2; 1 1/2 ⇒ 3 3/4; 2 ⇒ 5
Step-by-step explanation:
The given recipe serves 4, so must be multiplied by 10/4 = 5/2 to make it make 10 servings.
The numbers in the recipe (ignoring units or ingredients) are ...
1/4, 1/2, 1, 1 1/2, 2
Each of these numbers needs to be multiplied by 5/2 to get the number for the larger recipe.
1/4 × 5/2 = 5/8
1/2 × 5/2 = 5/4 = 1 1/4
1 × 5/2 = 5/2 = 2 1/2
(1 1/2) × 5/2 = 3/2 × 5/2 = 15/4 = 3 3/4
2 × 5/2 = 5
Then, to make the larger recipe, rewrite it with the quantities replaced as follows:
old value ⇒ new value
1/4 ⇒ 5/8
1/2 ⇒ 1 1/4
1 ⇒ 2 1/2
1 1/2 ⇒ 3 3/4
2 ⇒ 5
__
For example, 1 1/2 lbs of fresh tomatoes ⇒ 3 3/4 lbs of fresh tomatoes
_____
<em>Additional comment</em>
If you actually want to create the recipe, you may find it convenient to use a spreadsheet to list quantities, units, and ingredient names. Then you can add a column for the quantities for a different number of servings, and let the spreadsheet figure the new amounts. (A spreadsheet will compute quantities in decimal, so you will need to be familiar with the conversions to fractions--or use metric quantities.)

It is given in the question that
The gas tank of Tyrell's truck holds 19.8 gallons. when the tank empty, Tyrrell fills it with gas that costs $3.65 per gallon.
It means cost of one gallon of gas is $3.65 .
And the tank hold 19.8 gallon . So cost of 19.8 gallon is
Therefore about $72.27 it will cost to fill the tank .
