Question

This month you make $4,875 from liquor sales, $15,515 from food, and $2,212 in your gift shop. If your monthly sales goal is $22,000 did you meet your goal?

a) Yes
b) No
c) Can't tell from the data

Answer 1

The answer is A, yes. If you add all of the sales up you get the sales total which is 22,602 which exceeds the goal.

Answer 2

You can eliminate C

all you have to do is add $4,875 + $15,515 + $2,212 to get the answer $22,602 and then is $22,602 equal to 22,000 or no? The answer is Yes!
