A store is making 720 limited edition watches available for sale throughout the month. Each day, 6.25% of these watches will be made available for sale.

How many watches will have been made available for sale after 5 days?

Respuesta :

225 watches, multiply 720 by 0.0625 to get per day, then multiply by 5 for 5 days
First fine 5% of 720 which is 36
Then find 1% of 720 which is 7
Then 0.25% of 720 which is 0.75
Now add them together to find 6.25% which is equivalent to 43.75
Now times this by 5 for the 5 days
43.75 x 5 = 218.75
Now rounded up too 219 watches for sale after 5 days
