Answer 1

Let x represent the number of shares Jillian owns

`60\% = (60)/(100) \\ (60)/(100) = (x)/(1200) \\ 100x = (60)(1200) \\ 100x = 72000 \\ x = (72000)/(100) \\ \boxed{x = 720}`

• Jillian owns b) 720 shares of the catering corporation

Answer 2

`\\ \bull\tt\longmapsto 100x=60(1200)`

`\\ \bull\tt\longmapsto 100x=72000`

`\\ \bull\tt\longmapsto x=(72000)/(100)`

`\\ \bull\tt\longmapsto x=720`
