Question

A retail store in Benton sold 7038 laptop computers last year if this sale was 56% of the total computer sales find the total number of computers sold

Answer 1

Approximately total computers are 12,568 (rounding off)

Explanation:

Given that:

56% of total computers = 7038

Let total computers = c

It can be written as:

0.56 x = 7038

To calculate total number of computers, divide both sides by 0.56

x = 7038/0.56

x = 12567.857

Approximately total computers are 12,568 (rounding off)
