Question

The circle graph shows how the annual budget for a company is divided by department. If the amount budget for media and sales combined is 15,000,000, what is the total annual budget?

Answer 1

Given:

The circle graph shows how the annual budget for a company is divided by department.

The amount budget for media and sales combined is 15,000,000

From the graph the percentage of the media and sales =

`7\%+13\%=20\%`

We will find the total annual budget, let it = x

So, 20% of x = the amount for media and sales

so, we can write the following equation:

`\begin{gathered} 20\%*x=15,000,000 \\ \end{gathered}`

Solve for x:

`\begin{gathered} 0.2*x=15,000,000 \\ \\ x=(15,000,000)/(0.2)=75,000,000 \end{gathered}`

So, the answer will be:

the total annual budget = 75,000,000
