Question

A company anual profit last year was 10.5 millions but has deacrease 6% for this year what is this years profit

Answer 1

so 10.5 millions would be the 100% then, now, minus 6%, we'd end up with 100-6 is just 94% then, now, how much is 94% of 10.5?

well
`\bf \begin{array}{ccllll} amount&\%\\ \textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash&\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash\\ 10.5&100\\ x&94 \end{array}\implies \cfrac{10.5}{x}=\cfrac{100}{94}`

solve for "x"
