Question

Your company has decided to give 15% of all weekend sales to a community charity. If the total weekend sales are $9,520, your company will give $635.

Answer 1

Given: Total weekend sales is:
`\$ 9,520`

Since, the company has decided to give
`15\%` of all weekend sales to the community charity.

Therefore, the amount given by company to community charity is given by:

`A = 15\% * (9520)`

`A = (15)/(100)*(9520)`

`A = (15)/(10)*(952)`

`A = (14280)/(10)`

`A = 1428`

Thus, the company will give
`\$1428` to charity instead of
`\$635`
