#8: $900. (I found this answer by multiplying 3000 and 0.3 by the way)
#9: 160 miles. I found this answer by multiplying 80 by two, since two halves/50% make a whole or 100%.
this would look like this: 0.0000001^10
If we were to do 0.0000001*0.0000001 it would be 0.00000000000010
We doubled the zeroes and moved the one up. Continue on until you reach the tenth power.
Answer:
$1200
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 2 ways I immediately think about to solving the problem.
1) You multiply 30 and 200 , then multiply the product by .2 (i.e. 20%)
This way, you'll find out what the total amount was($6,000), then you multiply it by your commission rate.(.2 or 20%) to find your total profit($1,200).
2) You multiply 200 by .20 , then multiply the product by 30.
This way, you'll find out what your commission would be for a single item($40), then multiply by the total items sold (30) to find your total profit($1,200).
