Question

My favorite songstress gives away 25% of the sales of her signature fragrance collection to her charity. Last month her sales was $ 1,200. How much of her total sales did she donate?

Answer 1

Since she donates 25%, take 25% and multiply it by 1,200

`.25 * 1,200 = 300`

or,

`(1)/(4) * 1,200 = 300`
