Problema Solution

A storeowner gave each of his 4 helpers 2/5 of his profit for the week. If the total profit was ₱20,000.00 how much money was dividedamong his helpers?

Answer provided by our tutors

to 1 helper he will give


(2/5)*20,000.00 = $8,000


to 4 helpers he will give


4((2/5)*20,000.00) = $32,000


if he gave 2/5 of his profit for the week to all 4 helpers (instead to each) then we will have


(2/5)*20000 = $8,000


and they divided $8000 among them.
