Clean Machine is Cedarburg's premier house cleaning service. The company used 4,530

gallons of soap last year, and 50% less this year. How many gallons of soap did the company
use this year?

Answer 1

This company used 2265 gallons of soap this year

Explanation:

50% of 4530

Soap used this year = 4530 - 2265 = 2265
