Answer:
the least common multiple is 18
Step-by-step explanation:
15% becomes 0.15
multiply it by 8700
0.15x8700=1305
I believe you ment to say sale price but I hope this helps you understand your question. The original price was 1200, and if it were 5/6 on sale (this method works for all questions like this) you would do 1200 ÷ 6 = 200 x 5 = $1000.
In the given question, it is already mentioned that Pam takes 15 minutes to type 2.5 pages. this information should be used as the main information for reaching the desired answer.
Pam typed 2.5 pages in = 15 minutes
Then time taken by Pam to type 23 pages = (15/2.5) * 23
= 345/2.5
= 3450/25
= 138
So Pam will take 138 minutes to type 23 pages
