Question

A home decor store donated a percent of every sale to hospitals. The total sales were ​$8,400 so the store donated ​$672. What percent of ​$8,400 was donated to ​hospitals?

Answer 1

8%

Explanation:

To find the percentage that was donated to hospitals, we can set up the following equation:

`\sf (total\: donation)/( total \:sales) * 100 = percentage \:donated`

In this case, the total donation was $672 and the total sales were $8,400.

Substituting these values into the equation, we get:

`\sf (672)/(8400) * 100 = percentage \:donated`

Simplifying this expression:

(0.08) * 100 = percentage donated

8% = percentage donated

Therefore, the home decor store donated 8% of $8,400 to hospitals.
