Question

A car was sold 24 standard washed in a day , which was 25% of their total sales for that day . What was the total amount of washes that the car wash sold that day?

Answer 1

`96`

Explanation:

GIVEN: A car was sold
`24` standard washed in a day , which was
`25\%` of their total sales for that day.

TO FIND: Total amount of washes that the car wash sold that day.

SOLUTION:

Let the total sales of car washes sold for that day
`=x`

total number of standard car washes sold
`s=24`

As, total standard car washes sold are
`25\%` of total sales in a day

`s=(25)/(100)x`

putting value in equation

`24=(25)/(100)x`

`x=(24)/(25)*100`

`x=96`

Hence the total number of car washes sold that day are
`96`
