Question

PLZ HELP! A book sold 38,700 copies in its first month of release. Suppose this represents 9.8% of the number of copies sold to date. How many copies have been sold to date?
Round your answer to the nearest whole number.

Answer 1

Answer:

394,898

Step-by-step explanation:

9.8% = 0.098

0.098x = 38700

Divide both sides by 0.098

x = 38700/0.098

x = 394,897.9591836735

Rounding

x = 394,898
