Question

Macy has bought 812 bananas. Jake has bought 83% of Macy's bananas. Karl bought three times the amount of Jake's amount at a local grocery store. Gary then proceeded to buy 29% of Karl's bananas. How much bananas does Gary have in total?

Answer 1

586 bananas :shrug: Sorry if it’s plain and simple someone already did the work

Answer 2

586 bananas

Explanation:

Macy - 812 bananas

Jake - (812 x 0.83) = 673.96 bananas

Karl - (673.96 x 3) = 2021.88 bananas

Gary - (2021.88 x 0.29) = 586.3452 bananas. The answer gets rounded down to 586 bananas because he can't have part of a banana
