Question

Jan is the regional manager of Graphic DesignWorks. She uses a company

cell phone that costs $125 each month. She manages 5 branches of Graphic
DesignWorks equally. How much of her annual cell phone bill will each branch
pay for?
A. $125
B. $300
C. $150
D. $500

Answer 1

B. $300

Explanation:

annual : yearly

$125 per month for 12 months

125(12) = 1500

$1500 equally split among 5 branches

1500/5 = 300

Each of the 5 branches contributes $300 each per year to Jan's cell phone bill.

Answer 2

300

Explanation:

If each branch pays the bill equally, and the bill accounts for a year's worth of pay, then you should multiply 125*12~giving you 1500

Then you divide 1500/5, since the 5 company's pay equally... this is equal to 300 dollars.
