The model helicopter would burn 10.5 ounces of fuel in 7 1/2 minutes. You would first multiply 1.4 (1 2/5 ounces of fuel) by 7 minutes to get 9.8 ounces of fuel. Then, divide 1.4 by 2 to account for the thirty seconds of the flight ( thirty seconds is half of a minute, or 1/2) to get 0.7, add 0.7 by 9.8, and get 10.5 ounces of fuel in the process.
Whatever% of anything is just (whatever/100) * anything.
now, we know Trever makes $500 in salary and 2% on sales, let's say he sells "x" amount, how much is 2% of x? well (2/100) * x, or 0.02x.
Therefore Trever's earnings are 500 + 0.02x, his salary plus his commission.
to earn a total of 2,000, then 500 + 0.02x = 2000, thus
Answer:
3/4x
