Question

A band is receiving $650.00 for playing at a festival. Their manager takes 15% of the money received for each show, and the band pays their sound technician 10% of all profit. How much money is left for the band to split?

Answer 1

We have the following:

To find the answer we must subtract the percentages as follows

`\begin{gathered} 650-(15)/(100)\cdot650-(10)/(100)\cdot650 \\ 650-97.5-65=487.5 \end{gathered}`

Therefore to distribute among the band $487.5
